I'm noticing everything attached to Photobucket is now gone. Is this a PB problem that will fix itself, or an LJ problem that will require me to fix something manually on all of my old posts? This is especially important for me to figure out quickly as I'm hosting a Rumble at calendarsquares and the voting is supposed to go up tonight DX

I noticed it too. Apparently it started over the weekend. Some users are reporting it fixed while others are just now seeing the problem. Supposedly, PB is aware and fixing the issue. Images should show again once it is resolved.

Personally, I'll wait a bit to see if said resolution happens before I worry about editing a bunch of posts. Otherwise.... alternate hosting until then? XD

Well, I'm glad to hear that it's something that seems to be fixing itself... I've been using PB since I started icon making, it would be a shame if everything to date broke...

Thanks for letting me know! I'll check back later and maybe just extend Round 01 of the rumble for a few extra days.

Looks like mine just started working again after being out earlier this afternoon, so maybe yours are fixed now too?

It seems like when these things happen, they go through the PB servers in waves depending on where in the grouping your account is. At least it's usually fixed fairly quickly. XD;;

It started sometime today for me as well, but it's still down at the moment. It's a relief to hear it's being taken care of quickly, though :3

Yeah I've just noticed it recently, but it seems it doesn't happen to all people at once orz

For the rumble, i guess just upload on another hosting site for this round? It will be nice if PB fix it before the voting time tho

I was even thinking about simply giving a short exension for Round 01 until the issue resolves itself to simplify things. I'll just wait and see what happens...

Looks like photobucket is down for maintenance, so hopefully they are working on it :D

I hope so... I'm too loyal/lazy to leave PB, but times like this make hositng images via another site seem very tempting XD

People keep telling me to switch to imgur, but Everything icon of mine is on photobucket, so I... can't...
I did have to upload the Krumkakes sign-up banner to imgur though D: my OCD is ticked haha! I keep telling myself I'll switch it over to photobucket when that returns.
