On the subject of technology...

Just in case you were wondering why all of the images in all of my threads have been simultaneously replaced with an "upgrade now" image, I have fallen victim to the Photobucket ransom demand (they have sneakily changed their terms and conditions to outlaw 3rd party image hosting on free accounts), and as a result all of my linked images have been removed. As I naturally won't be paying their exorbitant upgrade fee I'm afraid that all of my image links are gone for good.

Fortunately I have every single image backed up so nothing has been lost, other than the (temporary) inability to post images.

Hopefully I will find another way to upload images in the future.

Mine too and I'm not paying the ludicrous $399 ransom to 'fix' them. It's cheaper to buy a domain name and use that to host pictures. Bastards.

Am hearing reasonably positive reviews of imgur and flickr on other forums. My Photobucket links have escapes the cull (for the moment).

I've been using the Rods n Sods website to host pictures, then draft a post and "cut and paste" to elsewhere.
