Thank you for this. There are so many car forums that I read that had all their photos posted on Photobucket.

RAAAAARGH!!!! GIFT CARDS ARE FUCKING RETARDED!!!!

(I need a hug)
Same here. fuckbucket ransoming images really screwed up a lot of car forums, especially threads on mods with heaps of images. I didn't know there was a work around.
Just searching now and apparently there's a "photobucket fixer" add on for firefox as well
E: just tested the firefox one and it works OK with no user input required. Tested it out on a old thread from 2007 and most PB images loaded (some are just missing though, but there's no PB pay us money image there either, so they must just be gone completely)

Was photobucket the one that was actually wordfiltered on here for a while, even for registered users? I know one of the big sites was during the era that waffleimages was dying off and imgur wasn't big yet.

Imageshack was the one that was banned forum-wide. Can't remember the details.

Edit: from saclopedia

quote:

Lowtax has posted in QCS that imageshack was/is blocked "because MacBeth admitted using the SA Forums to advertise his stupid image hosting site for months upon months, if not years. He would regularly post 'updates' in GBS which served as nothing but blatant advertisements for his for-profit service. I don't appreciate companies using our forum members to unwittingly virally advertise their products, and if I discover any company trying to covertly advertise their poo poo through the forums, you'd better believe I'm going to block them."

Thanks for heads up everybody, I mainly just lurk and the last time I paid any attention to image hosting was when goons were getting banned for saying “thx kthx”. Off to Imgur I go.

I went to the race at Mosport this past weekend for the IMSA Weathertech Sportscar Championship series racing and all of their supporting races. We rented an RV and showed up as soon as we were allowed to stage early in the week. Here are a small sampling of pics.

Here's the #47 Norma M30 LMP3 car powered by a Nissan VK50VE of Forty7 Motorsports:


One of the two Chip Ganassi Racing Ford GTs.


Magnus Racing's R8.


Mazdas! The RT24-Ps. This is the team that used to run all the big Audi prototypes before the diesel scandal.


A fuckin pile of prototype sexual energy, a Penske Racing Acura ARX-05b.


A view from Friday's LMP3 practice from midway up corner 5/Moss Corner.


I asked one of the members of the BMW crew how they managed to fit both M8s in the garage at once. He looked at me like I had three heads.


We capped the weekend off by burning a friend's pair of old Pilotis.

Meh, thats hardly the biggest fire or most unusual thing I've seen being burned at Mosport.

Nice pics though. Haven't been there in Years. Used to go all the time back when my brother was a marshal 20 odd years ago, as he'd get a few free tickets.

It's a love affair. Mainly jebus, and my racecar.
