Re: Photobucket warning! $399/year charge!

Hi Ruairidh,
Your link comes up with this:-

Warning: include(/mnt/den2-pri1-mnt/code/code/pb-htdocs/public/galleryd/desktop.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /code/pb-htdocs/public/galleryd/index.php on line 122

Warning: include(): Failed opening '/mnt/den2-pri1-mnt/code/code/pb-htdocs/public/galleryd/desktop.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:..:../..:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/share/php/Smarty') in /code/pb-htdocs/public/galleryd/index.php on line 122

Don't know if this is PB generated or Firefox.

Edit: On a second attempt, it comes up with the ransom note!

Thanks Ian - I am still able to view other's PB photos but I suspect, going by the shared experiences on here, this too will stop for me in the very near future.

Can you please let me know if you can view this?

Hi Ruairdh, in short NO just the square banner asking me to update.

Re: Photobucket warning! $399/year charge!

Same for me R, just get the same grey square 'please update your account' banner - Apple Mac running Safari 10.1.1

Re: Photobucket warning! $399/year charge!

Same here, although I can see all your thumbnails just not allowed to view the pictures full size. Photobucket now seem to be asking for feed back so I gave them some

Ruairidh,
Greed knows no bounds.
I read somewhere that PB has been taken over, so if true, then the new accountants just see $$$ winging their way from the ransom they have imposed on their users.
Puts them on a par with Ransomware now!
I would think they are now on the receiving end of the Internet's wrath.

Re: Photobucket warning! $399/year charge!

Just found this on the Historic Military Vehicle Forum:-

My recommendation to anybody who has photos stored with them is download all your photos and save them to your computer. Will bet anyone (one stale donut) that within one year Photobucket will be gone.
