PSA: regarding image hosting

[boldygoing]

If you're using Photobucket to host images on your character's journal, please be advised that Photobucket has just recently disabled third-party hosting and hotlinking unless you pony up $400 per year. Some images on mine got broken and I'm currently rehosting on Cubeupload with no problems so far.

Ah hah! A post where I can be Helpful! As some of us have already heard and/or discovered, dreamwidth has their own image hosting service now, which is what I've started using for any and all of my hosting services for character journal junk.

Oh, fantastic! I was not aware of that. Several of my RP buddies had been relying on Photobucket so that helps a lot. Thanks!

I'm not entirely sure what its limits are, but admittedly my major image needs are few and far between, and I've got a number of journals anyway, but there ya go! It's not a problem, either.

It's fairly simple to use, too, so that also helps imho.
