Photobucket (I feel like a dirty, dirty whore)

Post by THEYTOOKMYTHUMB »

I just paid to unlock my photos and man it's worth the $6 for a month just to unlock the time capsule! :lol: Sorry... :oops:

They will never (and I mean never) get a penny from me. They singlehandedly destroyed the forum.

Even the process of paying them was super annoying. They ask question after question and then try to force you into their higher cost plans. :roll: I hated it, but needed a few photos in there.

I get it, and I can appreciate the need. I just rank photobucket execs right in there with every politician and celebrity. Absolute scum.

Same here. I used it for years after joining this forum because it was free and easy, without really thinking they might start charging one day. I paid $6 ransom for 1 month access and will get what I need out of there and not pay again, that's for sure!

I use it for photo hosting. For the longest time I couldn’t access my stuff even though they would automatically debit my credit card for $2.99 a month. I got it back working and now they want $6.99. I might resurrect my showroom on Tamiyaclub.

I did that when TC decided that every member could invite another member for a year's free subscription... good friend nominated me, and my showroom was back again! Sadly, a) that was a year ago (time flies!), so I'll have to front up the cash myself this time, and b) the old TCPhotos doesn't work any more, and I never got around to sorting out the newer version.
