| not sure if this is actually true, maybe some of our EU members can verify? | Quote: | | Tinypic is no longer accepting uploads from international locations, and links are turned off. If you have content on Tinypic, you can still view the URLs and the content, but only on Tinypic. To upload, share, or link content, please go to Photobucket.com to register an account. You will need to upload your content again to your Photobucket account, but you will be able to share and link your images and videos. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and hope that you enjoy Photobucket, our premier image and video site |

| Hmmm... Looks like a fake to me, someone from Photobucket trying to drum up trade, maybe? If they wanted to free up servers all they'd do is transfer the files to another, not just dump them.  __________________________ |

| Was there any date mentioned for this conversion? If not, makes no sense mhmm.
If it was an official announcement from photobucket since they own tinypic, that would make sense since they may want to lowerbandwidth on tinypic and get more traffic to the main site where more ads are or something to geenrate revenue etc.
Unless anything else happens, no sense to keep this open when the links currently work. __________________________ |
