This is a problem on so many forums I visit.

If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself. Trusting a hosting site like Photobucket or any of the others is foolish as you don't know if they will be there tomorrow. If your pictures matter to you, keep them at home on multiple locations so you don't lose them.
Hopefully this Photobucket fiasco teaches people a little about maintaining their files. For many people, it needs to hurt for the lesson to get through.

Of course there is always another angle to these things..... you do know any pictures you post here are now owned by shopsmith as are anything you post. Not everyone is going to be comfortable with that either. If you store your photos somewhere and link to them you retain ownership. That is why I use to use another site and still would except they want you to pay now.

I consider anything I post anywhere to be public domain.

I am often amazed to discover my pix in the strangest unexpected places online. :cool:
