Photobucket no longer an option –

Hi all,
I just noticed that Photobucket have updated their terms and conditions, and now prohibit third party image hosting on all but their premium subscription level. This means we can no longer upload images to photobucket and use IMG tags in posts on VWAF to embed them into our posts. All the images currently linked to from the forum now appear as a graphic that says "PLEASE UPDATE YOUR ACCOUNT TO ENABLE 3RD PARTY HOSTING". If you follow the url in the graphic, you find they demand a $400 per year (USD) subscription to show images on third party sites such as this one. I have many images linked to in my posts over the years, and I now need to find another site to host the images, then edit each and every IMG URL in the posts to replace the photobucket URL with the new replacement. Not fun! I'm sure I'm not the only VWAF member affected by this too.
MF.
