Photos on the site
« on: September 11, 2020, 11:00:37 AM »
I tried looking for an answer, but nothing obvious came up...I've noticed most photos on the site have "PHOTOBUCKET" all through them, and oftentimes the quality is baaaad.  :-[ Is there any way to get rid of that? Paying member? Photobucket account? Help?

thanks in advance

That's a "trait" of Photobucket. I post pictures from my computer. I guess you don't.
That's 5030, a 65 GT-350 in a friend's garage.

Photobucket used to be free up until a year or so back they decided they wanted to start charging for photo hosting...

Jeff S. can elaborate.  He's been slowly moving pics over to the site, but it's a lot of work to go back and update threads.

Would be surprised if the old Photobucket pictures were the majority of the pictures on this site. Must just be the particular subjects you happen to be looking at.  Since you found those you might be familiar with the search feature .  Another example where search would have helped finding the thread below. Just used the words "Photobucket"

As mentioned in that thread. If you find them send me a link to the subject in a PM and I'll try and replace them

Thanks much, and will do! When I used the term "Photobucket", practically every thread (or most of them) still using the PB photos came up....

all the best
