l’hébergeur d’image PhotoBucket , un des plus gros services d'hébergement d'images sur le web qui est largement utilisé par les forumers a décidé de changer les conditions d’utilisation de ses visuels en les rendant désormais payants. What's happen ?!?Depuis début juillet 2017, PhotoBucket a introduit des frais pour l'affichage des images qu'il héberge sur des sites tiers. En effet, ce service restreint désormais l’accès à ses images depuis des sites externes aux seuls utilisateurs disposant d’un compte premium de type PLUS 500 moyennant plus de 350 Euros/an ! affraidConséquence : plus de 100 millions d'internautes ont été mis devant le fait accompli en découvrant du jour au lendemain une notification les invitant à créer un compte premium en lieu et place des images qu’ils avaient intégrées à leurs propres sites. paleEn effet, depuis son passage en version payante, les images PhotoBucket issues de comptes non premium ne s’affichent plus sur les sites externes et sont remplacés par une image par défaut invitant l’utilisateur à souscrire un abonnement.
A few days ago, photobucket got rid of 3rd party hosting without any warning. 90% of users use photobucket for that purpose, so all of your photos have been locked up behind a $400-$500 pay wall.
Apparently, you have to get the Plus 500 plan just to do what many other sites like imgur let you do for FREE.
If you have any art, photos, or work with graphics of any kind, DO NOT use photobucket. If you still have your photos/art, find a new hosting site IMMEDIATELY (preferably one that's free like imgur, deviantart, or tumblr).
Report them to FTC or the Online Complaint Assistant. A paywall this big and sudden is a ransom scam no matter how you look at it. Quite a shame, too, photobucket has been a decent website for over 15 years...
EDIT3: Well, we've finally figured out why some people can download their photos and others can't. You have to have some sort of subscription to download your photos off, and you'll have a year to do so before they get rid of that option. If you DIDN'T have a subscription of any kind when this bs happened... I guess you're flat out screwed.
I wish everyone luck, especially those with 1000+ photos...

VirusTotal.com also cites: the following:

AegisLab WebGuard: Phishing site
Quttera: Suspicious site
site made for photo sharing, but it has a lot of downsides.
1: So much cookies... lags computers a lot.
2: pop-ups and ads everywhere. (adblock doesn't block it all.)
3: occasional inappropriate images.
4: pop-ups may lead to viruses.
I suggest you do not go to this site unless:
1: you need to upload an image for a website in HD
or
2: you have a good antivirus, adblock, and a popup blocker and want to put some photos there.
https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/photobucket.com/comment-86878157#comment-86878157 use adblock then. Shut up and stop whining.
The website is fine for pictures, but there's much better places for it.
Why am I getting pop-ups after going to this site? I thought Photo Bucket was good. I will change my rating if someone can tell me how to get rid of pop-ups.
It's either: A shop or other that uses SPAM to his promotion (adverts), even famous brands, deemed reliable, do the same now, I've seen public services in any country to use SPAM for their advancement (tourism, trade fairs, shows, festivals, etc..), there is only a small step for hospitals, police, governments, schools, ... will go do the same too. A disaster of modern times now affecting other means of mobile communications (smartphones, tablets, SMS, etc..).
Or if it's either: An address used for SPAM, endless new addresses (even the wacky, with a letter changed, weird word, numbers, .......) are created permanently to bypass filters, updated constantly, that harassed and antispam services put to block this scourge!
Apparently this is the feast of site creations including fake sites for spam, scams, to sell us (legally or illegally) their products or services, and pollute the planet with electric resources wasted, thank you also HOSTS complaisant with the SPAM and the world of profit!
One day, the number of Internet domains used for SPAM extensively exceed the number of useful internet domains, like the number of SPAM received which represents 90% of e-mails that are received in the world!

/!\ A VERY IMPORTANT TIP /!\ :
DON'T CLICK ON ANYLINK IN A SPAM, INCLUDING THE UNSUSCRIBE LINK, BECAUSE YOU WOULD CONFIRM THAT YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS IS VALID, TO BETTER SPAMMING YOU, SPAMS are very contagious with illegal resale data, unofficially legal in corrupt countries!
REPORT DIRECTLY SUSPECTS E-MAIL, SMS OR CALL TO SERVICES PROVIDED FOR THIS PURPOSE THAT THE AUTHORITIES AND ASSOCIATIONS HAVE PUT IN PLACE TO COMBAT THIS PANDEMIC!
------------------------------------------------------------------
Il s'agit soit: Un commerce ou autres qui se sert du SPAM pour faire sa promotion, même des célèbres marques, réputé fiable en font de même maintenant, j'ai vu des services publics de n'importe quel pays utiliser du SPAM pour leur promotion (tourisme, expositions, salons, festivités, etc.), il n'y a qu'un pas à franchir pour que les hôpitaux, la police, les gouvernements, les écoles, ... , s'y mettent aussi. Un véritable désastre des temps modernes qui touche maintenant d'autres moyens de communications mobiles (smartphones, tablettes, SMS, etc.).
Ou il s'agit sinon soit: Une des adresses servant pour le SPAM, une infinité de nouvelles adresses (même les plus farfelus, avec une lettre qui change, un mot bizarre, des chiffres, .......) sont créé en permanence pour contourner les filtres, mis a jour en permanence, que les harcelés et les services antispams mettent pour bloquer ce fléau!
Apparemment c'est la fête des créations de site y compris des faux sites pour du spam, des arnaques, de la publicité pour nous vendre (légalement ou illégalement) leur produits, ou services, et polluer la planète avec des ressources électriques gaspillés, merci aussi les hébergeurs complaisants envers le SPAM et le monde du profit!
Un jour, le nombres de domaines internet servant à du SPAM dépassera largement le nombre de domaines internet utiles, à l'instar du nombre de SPAM reçus qui représente 90% des e-mails qui sont reçus dans le monde!
La preuve ici:

/!\ UN CONSEIL TRÈS IMPORTANT /!\ :
NE CLIQUEZ JAMAIS SUR N'IMPORTE QUEL LIENS DANS UN SPAM, Y COMPRIS LE LIEN DE DÉSABONNEMENT, VOUS NE FERAIS QUE CONFIRMER QUE VOTRE ADRESSE E-MAIL EST VALIDE, POUR MIEUX VOUS SPAMMER, le SPAM est très contagieux avec la revente illégale des données, officieusement légale dans des pays corrompus!
SIGNALEZ DIRECTEMENT LES E-MAILS, LES SMS OU APPELS SUSPECTS VERS DES SERVICES PREVUS A CET EFFET QUE LES AUTORITES ET ASSOCIATIONS ONT MIS EN PLACE POUR LUTTER CONTRE CETTE PANDEMIE!
I go to this website and a suspicious pop-up shows up in lower left corner that syas "The media content is no shown properly. I is recommended to update your system player now..." and it is jiggling around to get attention. I can't tell what is presenting it. Needless to say I didn't click on it.
