Well, in recent months and more specificaly in recent weeks I have slowly but surly been moving alot of images from Photobucket to TR's VillagePhoto acount in partnership with Mike/Voyager.
Hoever, not to tie up too much bandwidth on either end, I've split TR's images between the two accounts, and it looks like today the Photobucket is having massive problems.
I've been to thier support board, and they are working on the problem, but do not expect to have the problem fixed until this evening sometime, so it could be several hours.
In the mean time I have restored some default buttons here on TR, the menu buttons, and buttons that are posting tools, so you can still post without having to guess what broken image link does what.
I apalogize for the inconvinience, but these things are unfortunatly bound to happen from time to time.

Not your fault, Myke. I experience the same. *rolls eyes* I am slowly starting to use my Lycos account again - Photobucket seems to become rather unreliable. *rolls eyes again...*

Which is a shame as thier offer is quite genrous. I don't know of any other free accounts that offer as much bandwidth as they do.
I guess for every positive there is a negative though.

Tip: Never use AngelFire. They are as reliable as a house on the San Andreas Fault.

Actually, I am on Lycos now and I see that I can add 50MB worth of images. Now... that is as much as Photobucket, isn´t it?
And yes, it is a little long way round to get the images added onto your board, but it´s there. And I never had Lycos letting me down. I just think that Photobucket is better because it´s easier (and faster) to use but rather than having the images down for who-knows-how-long, I now changed them all over to my Lycos account. *big grin*

100 MB of upload space, and 2,500 MB of bandwidth transfer.
Well here we are, a day later, and no images yet. I'd move everything over to the VillagePhotos account, but we may be experiencing troubles with that soon as well, so at this point, it's best to sit back, wait, and see how everything unfolds.

Well Kamel. I don't think people will leave the board because images don't work.

As it is easilly seen, our images that are on Photobucket are down again, but this will be the last time because of them.
Due to recent excesive problems with them, I've decided to terminate thier services to Temporal Reality. Given a projected problem dosent arrive with a Villiagephotos account I share with voyager, all TR images will be moved to there soon, to a more reliable image host. But no more Photobucket, and they only have themselves to blame.
