Looking for an alternative.
This is what PB wants as fees:
o Plus 50 Plan: 52 GB of Storage for $59.99 / Year. The Plus 50 Plan does not allow any image linking or 3rd party image hosting.
o Plus 100 Plan: 102 GB of Storage for $99.99 / Year. The Plus 100 Plan allows for unlimited image linking but does not allow 3rd party image hosting.
o Plus 500 Plan: 500 GB of Storage and unlimited bandwidth for $399.99 / Year. The Plus 500 Plan allows for unlimited image linking and unlimited 3rd party image hosting.

Well, I have stuff on PhotoBucket that I better start moving elsewhere, and many pictures on DWF that will disappear soon from the looks of it.
A little disappointing, but I have never paid anything for PB, I guess what I get what I pay for.
I have put stuff there from several devices, some of which possibly no longer exist.
I hate this computer crap!
Edit to add: I have not used a signature line photo for a long time, I just linked one in from PhotoBucket. Nothing has changed there so far.
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Well, I closed my PB account today, it actually takes tow days in case you change your mind.
I logged into imager. Getting the stuff copied from, PB took some figuring out...no click & drag, or edit copy paste-won't work from the full album view. You need to click onto an image which goes full page, then you can right click. save image as...and put it into a new desk top folder...at least I did on my Mac. Then need to upload by drawing into imager, one at a time, which works, and maybe highlight a bunch and drag-haven't tried this yet.
Anyway, so goes my new experience.

A lot of guys on my hot rod forum recommend Imgur, so that's where I'm headed too.

I was successful uploading all of my images from a folder by - edit>select all. grab holding the shift key and placing them into the image area on imager. There is a privacy lock so the public can not see the images should you choose to do so.

I dumped PB for Imgur, so far so good.

I am a little confused here, which is a very common status for me on anything more complicated than a microwave oven.
Is this a usage limit issue which imposes charges for the quantity of images hosted/shared?. I do not seem to be having any issues, I have 715 pictures there, many are duplicates, and many that I don't really need, and I don't share many pictures.

No, PB has changed their policy regarding 3rd part hosting of pics, so free accounts no longer have that service available. The new policy is only the P500 account ($400 per year) will allow it.
They are going after the big users first, but will eventually disable it for all accounts. Stand-by ...
