om617 Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 Was going thru the "under glass" section and several of the threads has dead pictures aka not showing. Does it happen to anyone else?Usually see cats because the uploader use free sites and exceed the limit by far. But this is very diffrent. Tommy
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 Photobucket is just about entirely offline.
om617 Posted November 4, 2016 Author Posted November 4, 2016 Photobucket is just about entirely offline.Thanks. Makes sense. Maby try check in later. I always thought of Photobucket as one of the more stabile imagehost.
randyc Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 I have a photobucket account and I can barely get on it. Not sure if its connection or what. Can uysually get to others' albums on Fotki easily. Photobucket? Forget it. Grrrr.
Johnt671 Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 I had a lot of trouble with Photobucket earlier in the week. I got an e-mail from them saying they had problems with an update but fixed it. I guess the fix isn't working out.
Snake45 Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 I always thought of Photobucket as one of the more stabile imagehost. A-HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Okay, I'm done channeling Sam Kinison for the day.
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 This really isn't funny. Now even some of the code lines that are used to place-hold the photos and identify them so they appear correctly in threads have disappeared.Last week there were massive "distributed denial of service" cyber attacks that resulted in sites like twitter and other biggies being not-accessible.We may be seeing something like this. It's NOT LIKE PHOTOBUCKET to interrupt the display-capability of the entire photo library, even when there are other issues.
JTalmage Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 Photobucket is down for maintenance again today.They have these sort of issues every once in a while. I mostly use photobucket's mobile app for my phone and tablet, and it won't let me log in today. But it was working last night when I uploaded a picture. I had an issue w/ the mobile app a while back and it didnt work at all, but the regular site worked fine.
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 Photobucket is down for maintenance again today.The typical problem with P-bucket is that users can't log-on or upload photos during site "maintenance" or "upgrades".It's frustrating, but the older photos have always continued to display properly on the forums they were linked to...at least in my experience.This is something entirely different.I've NEVER seen ALL the photos disappear from ALL the threads on this and every other forum before.
om617 Posted November 4, 2016 Author Posted November 4, 2016 A-HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Okay, I'm done channeling Sam Kinison for the day. Had it for years and never had a single issue with Photobucket. This is why i ask lol.
Jhedir6 Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 Had it for years and never had a single issue with Photobucket. This is why i ask lol. Same, I've been using PB for years and almost never any downtime or when there was past pics always showed in the threads. This last couple months tho they've had a ton of issues. Most notably, before yesterday and today, was the uploads and library access not working. I was having to reload the site multiple times ever time I switch from upload to library to get a link. Not good. Hopefully they get it up and running again soon, if not, have to start looking at a new hosting service.David
Modelbuilder Mark Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 But I've also noticed this with pictures that used to be in our individual galeries are also no longer showing up
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 But I've also noticed this with pictures that used to be in our individual galeries are also no longer showing up Yes, that is the current problem...WAY more severe than anything I know of happening to Photobucket since I started using it many years back. ALL the photos stored on Photobucket are currently unavailable (most photos that show up here are NOT stored on the Model Cars Magazine Forum server; they're stored on Photobucket or Fotki or some other "photo sharing" site and are simply linked to this site, where they display). Any photos you or anyone else has loaded to THIS site directly from their own hard-drive WILL still appear here, as will photos stored on photo-sharing sites OTHER THAN PHOTOBUCKET. Again...IT IS ONLY PICTURES STORED ON PHOTOBUCKET THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is the last update posted by Photobucket on their Facebook page, about 6 hours ago: ⚠ Update: During the planned maintenance last night, we encountered an unforeseen issue. Our team is continuing to work on resolving that issue, and we will provide another update as soon as possible. Rest assured that your information and content is safe. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience and continued support.
Modelbuilder Mark Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) But I am not even talking about photobucket. I am talking about what used to be the "members gallery" here on the forum. There are no images there any longer as well. Here is a screen capture. It looks like the data is supposed to be there for the pics, but nothing.Unless, maybe they have deleted the gallery function. Harry or another Mod would probably know the answer to that one. Edited November 5, 2016 by Modelbuilder Mark
JerseyRed Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Darn! I thought this thread was going somewhere else
