Hey Everyone!
I know it has been quite some time - I've been away for a few years now.
It was recently brought to my attention by Wolf that Photobucket has crashed and removed or lost images. Back when I was hanging around, this was my main image hosting service for all of my commissions and profile layouts - paid or free. This has resulted in a lot of images now displaying error messages instead of their intended picture.
edit : Just take a look at my signature - that's currently missing too
Thus I intend to fully work towards restoring and re-uploading any images that may have been affected as I don't want people to be missing out on what they've previously had access to.
If you have been affected and have any images from previous commissions or freebies that I have done turn into error messages or otherwise go missing :
I urge you to please help out by posting which image has been affected, and what it used to be if you can at all remember. Once it has been restored, or if there are any other issues, I will notify you.
Likewise if you know anyone that has been affected and they have yet to post or have missed this thread, maybe consider giving them a heads up? Thank you x
How long will this take to fix ?
As of current, I am likely going to have to find a lot of my old harddrives and re-upload images using a different service. I will try and work on this over the next few weeks and provide updates of progress - but be aware it may take some time due to business with work and university.
Other info
To prevent any future problems similar to these from occurring, I would highly recommend that you download your image so you have a copy of it on your own computer to re-upload if it ever goes down again. If you have issues with storing things directly on your PC I would suggest google drive as an alternative.
If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask me and I will try get back to you as soon as possible :)
