I joined Photobucket at the same time as I joined Camera Collector, as somewhere to host the photos I posted. Luckily, I only had low resolution copies stored there - the originals are all on my hard drive (and in backups).

I have just completed my full local backup. I never uploaded anything to Photobucket but low res images for web display, the higher res images are in hard drives and backups.
Yet, I am waiting if they get to my account (it is a paid one, no-ads, and I am way way below the storage limit).

I've paid for a domain name, and set up a website where I can host my pictures. If there are any pictures in my older posts that you want to see, let me know in this thread, and I'll load them onto the website, and link to them.

You may be ok, until your subscription is due.

Stuck with same problem, is setting up a webpage difficult or expensive, or can Google image storage work?

It wasn't difficult - I found a local hosting provider, who was also a domain name registrar. I opened an account, chose and registered a domain name, and paid $96.60, which is a year's subscription. I copied Wordpress onto my page, and used instructions I found online to set up a basic photogallery, which allows upload and linking of photographs.

They've caught up with me too now. Needless to say I won't be taking advantage of their offer. If anybody wants to access my images on this forum then let me know and I'll convert them to attachments.
