What is PhotoBucket up to ?

Recently the majority of (if not all) pictures are blocked - and show a message instead about "Third Party Hosting".

Is this an attempt by PB to extract money by any chance ?

They changed the system overnight to block third party picture hosting. Accounts and pictures are still there, just you cannot link to them to show on other websites. They now charge you $399 to get that functionality back. It was bound to happen, just the lack of warning (other than a spurious message sent out a year ago saying things might change). A lot of people are up in arms over it but I seriously doubt they will reverse the decision and I suspect others will follow suit.

Smacks a bit of sharp practice.

I think Flickr is still free - but for how long if photobucket does NOT fold ?
