For anyone still using PB (I've been paying them), they're "down".

They have over a billion of our world-wide users' pix on their servers and it looks like we've broken them.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Photobucket changed their pricing/free model, so external links to free members are all now broken. Only paying subscribers can link to their photos.
I've seen broken "upgrade your account" photobucket images all over the internet.

Between two of us we are currently homing;
Honda ST1300 Pan European - 2004
Honda ST1100 Pan European - 2000
Ex: Honda NT650 Deauville - 2004
New Honda NT700V

Most running, sort of.

Free account is still available. What has changed is only third party hosting which you have to now pay for.

You can still access your pictures and share them in other ways. Once I finish updating previous posts with linked pictures with new links I'll be closing that account.
