Avatar Problems - Photobucket
Posted: Mon Aug 07, 2017 6:22 pm
Hi everyone. This is a member service announcement only. FaithWriters has no connection with Photobucket at all.
If you have been using a free Photobucket account to host your avatar here in the forums, you may have already noticed that the image has been replaced with a message about upgrading your account. This is not from FaithWriters. It is from Photobucket. If you have a free Photobucket account and have not yet received this message in place of your images, you will soon. Photobucket are gradually rolling out the change to their free memberships.
Photobucket (understandably) are looking for ways to earn income with their site. Free accounts are still available, but images stored with these free Photobucket accounts cannot be used on third party sites. In other words, if you were using Photobucket to store images for your blog, website, or any forums, this will no longer be possible with a free account. The free account at Photobucket is now for storing photos and sharing with others.
So if you have been using a free Photobucket account to host your avatar image here in the forums, that will no longer be possible. Again, this is nothing to do with FaithWriters. This is due to policy changes at Photobucket.
Blessings!
