That's because we dicided to downgrade the servers so that we don't use as much data and help make it free again,..

The easiest way I found was to use Photobucket and use the IMG tag line to host your pictures on your thread!

If people are still unsure how to do it I'll write a Tutorial on how to do it
I'm not sure on a flicker account but could look into it!

Ffs took me long enough to figure out how to do that after photo bucket ruined every thing, project thread with no photos it is. Or can I put a Facebook link in now ?

Flicker is a pain in the ass and all. Want to update my project thread but it's too awkward to do now

It's easy once you know how
Photobucket did try screw everyone over and force you to pay but instead of settling for watermarking the pictures!,..

I don't think it'd work hosting your pictures on your fb account
Due priversy settings I believe Facebook have

You could host your pictures on say a blog though!

For example

Find the address of your uploaded image usually right click View image which will display just the image
In the address bar you should get something like a Web address that ends in the name of your image

www.my306stuff.blogspot/my306picture.jpg

Then just put it in between IMG brackets
But I'll put up a fool proof tutorial with pictures on!

Issues are that photo bucket own your images once you upload them, so we can’t upload direct no more ?

Just slap them on imgur and link through, imgur's pretty fast, just hit upload on the page and that's it, no faffing like photof**kit these days:




...took maybe ~5-10 seconds at worst.
