This may have been covered before but how do I view images that are" currently unavailable from photo bucket". Is there a way around this.
Cheers
John.

Nobody uses them now

As above you can’t view them and most people closed their accounts because of the introduction of a massive monthly charge. Lots of pics on my build disappeared frustratingly and similar with others builds threads.

That's a bugger. Was having a troll through the archives looking for Dyno graphs on mutts all round performance pipes v Allspeeds on an LC. Lots of great content missing because of this.!

Imgur works well and is free...just lots of ads.

... for now....
If history has taught us anything its that free image hosting sites start small and free, become bigger and remain free for a bit... but then suddenly seem to get some new management.
These bods arrive to fix the fact the company is haemorrhage money as the ads dont cover the costs. This leads to knee jerk reactions of subscription models which are not taken up as the users like the service for free.
These subs then become more exy and the threats of pic loss to the free users escalates, then the users leave...
For the biz, the costs stay the same.
The subs money isnt enough and they die or cut back the costs and they become small again...
...but the pain of the monetary loss remains and they never become free again, not that anyone would ever go back after the threats etc.
Imagecack, Photof**ket and a few other name... we who lived it, still hate these companies. Parting was like a divorce, we left so much behind...
That said, I am a fan of imgur... but more recently (2023) they have been slowly getting people to register... the next phase of that is a subs model... just be wary...
