There you can upload images. Then, make sure the URL you are posting has https instead of http. Put it between image tags [img] and [/img], and you should be good to go. The key to the secure page lock is that the URL is https and not http. Gotta have https. Gringo Locos instructions work well - Takes a little longer and looks like I'll need to do some sizing before posting so not as easy but it's an alternative. Last edited by Pugs; 06/30/17.

I'd rather not create a post just to put images on that I might want to use elsewhere. I'd be fine paying a nominal fee for the privelege.

Mine were visible here yesterday. I got an email from them overnight about losing 3rd party hosting capabilities. They're gone from here today. So it does appear they're going about it piecemeal.

PB was the simple answer for many users on forums, they will lose all pictures including avatars...the downside to image hosts.

Cheyenne Campfire Outfitter Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 10,596 Likes: 1 Wyoming	I got the e-mail from PB telling me I needed to upgrade in order to allow third party hosting. I clicked on the upgrade link to see how much it costs to upgrade. It's only $399.99. Such a deal. I'll probably keep the PB account for a little while to see if it regains a little common sense. After that I'll cancel my account. I don't put anything there that I don't have on other storage media under my control. Last edited by Cheyenne; 06/30/17.

I agree, and mentioned that since I joined,,,,but think it massively effects server size for individual files, and generally the Forum "owns" you picture once it's posted on line. This is the only forum out of 15 or so that I have to use a image host.

For more than 10 years, the majority of people posting hosted pictures on any board on the internet has used them. Mostly for the reason of having 3 party hosting... Now, 10 years of photos, instruction, tutorials, and priceless information throughout the internet will be lost because PB changed their game plan? As an example, here's a thread that's a couple years old. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/10095256/1 You can see how valuable it is now. If I owned a website like this one, or any other site that archives valuable information that will be affected by all the PB BS, I'd be all over them like chicken on a Junebug. Hope the PB people didn't like their jobs much. Hope their creditors got their money upfront as well, because I see any cashflow they have coming to a screeching halt. Molɔ̀ːn Labé Skýla!
