We’re excited to announce that Flickr has agreed to be acquired by SmugMug, the photography platform dedicated to visual storytellers.

SmugMug has a long history of empowering people who love photography and who want to improve their craft, making them a perfect fit for Flickr and our creative community. With SmugMug, we’ll continue to focus on you, the Flickr members who inspire us all with your work.

Nothing will change immediately with regard to your Flickr account. You will still access Flickr with your current login credentials and you will have the same Flickr experience as you do now. We will continue to work to make your Flickr experience even better.


So, SmugMug has decided that for up to 1,000 images the account will remain free but for over this number you will have to go Pro and pay for the account. This is based on, apparently, the fact that 97% of free Flickr accounts have less than 1,000 images. I have used about 300 so far, so I will continue with Flickr for now.


I have noticed that the bucket has backed down and my images are appearing again. For how long? Has the Flickr decision influenced bucket, or the other way around? I shall continue to do my own thing for now.

From the "new management team" at Photobucket:

"For a limited time, our current customers’ hosted images have been restored and Photobucket is introducing a new pricing plan that is built around everyone’s needs."

Undetermined is exactly how long those hosted images will remain restored.

A true sign of contrition would be for the bucket to apply charges for new links and to restore the old ones forfree

Having spent days and days replacing images on various forums I wouldn't use Photobucket again even if it was free for eternity.

I don't know if anyone else has noticed but Photobucket has restored all of its images. See this article from The Denver Post:

Sounds ominous, but I suppose no-one goes into business without wanting to make a profit.

Hope this helps.

My computer did not want to play ball the other night.

I will try again at some point and also try to find a now host for my images on photobucket. It doesn't matter that most of them have vanished from sites I used them on, I still have them on my computer. However it is a pain if you had a photo heavy thread



It worked this time.
Thanks for the reminder on how to do it
