Can see pics.

[3 Squids]

Hey guys. Today I wanted to update a thread of mine and can't see any of my pics. I see a sign that says update settings to allow 3rd party hosting. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?

If your pics are stored on Photobucket that's your answer. Looks like they are only hosting for people that pay them now. Greedy bbastards what?

Well that's a crock of sheet. Any way else to post pics?

I looked back and still see a lot of photobucket links working but I guess it won't last long.

Guess we have to stick with small pix uploaded as files. It is a pain to make a reduced size copy every time in order to load here.

Classicmako.com has a whole thread on the Photobucket shenanigans. Seems PB now wants $399 per year for 3rd party hosting.

Over in the *Off Topic* section Kracker made a post last week about the bastards at photobucket.

In the follow up posts on that thread I made the post that here was a link to 11 different sites that also are free like Photobucket and do third party hosting. Here's the link.

Well darn. I really got to figure this out. I have something to show you gents. My father in law took my advice and bought himself a '72 center console V. It's a beauty. I haven't seen it in person yet but seen pics. Wish I could share them with you guys.

you can post jpegs as attachments (the paperclip ). They have to be smaller files not Megapixels! To make them smaller there are several ways but a quick way is to email the pix to yourself as smaller size, then save them on your computer (I have a floder just for my "Email Pix" so I can find them easy...) The use the "paperclip" and Choose the pix you want to post (max 4 at a time)

Also, I have had success by saving pix in my "userCP Pictures and Albums" and then copying the BB code link and inserting it here

Also, you can copy the Image Adress from a WellcraftV20.com Gallery and insert it as an Image like this pic of Reelapeelin's V that I just snagged from the Gallery



If you already posted them on Facebook, you can right click Save Image to your computer and they will be small enough to post here using the paperclip. Like this attached pic at bottom....

Update: Well I downloaded Google photos and this appears to not work like Photobucket. As far as resizing and stuff on the computer I don't use a computer. I do everything in my phone so not really sure how to do all that on the phone.
