Nothing Mike. The problem is that chumbucket tried to extort millions of customers/users of their site by charging them to host photos. I hope no one has paid. Personally, I've retrieved all of my chumbucket photos and as I come across that blue box, I insert the photo.

Photobucket did us all dirty. I especially hate it because in my Double Ryca Build thread I have several hundred photos I can not use unless I pay phu**ing photobucket $400. That's extortion. >:(

I simply attach my photos to my posts so they will be here as long as the site is up.

On a side note, you are not a "customer" if you are not paying for service. Photobucket the right to charge whatever they want for their service and you have the right to use their service or not. (I'm betting most people will choose "not".)

Just housekeeping - I moved this to the Cafe.....as it is not a question specifically about a Savage motorcycle issue.

I'm having trouble with the web filters at work and the chrome patch.
Long delays with it.
Kill it, the page comes up immediately.

I deleted the photobucket add-in as it was causing me constant delays because it wasn't loading very quickly at all any more.

Sometimes it just hung totally and stopped all progress until you went back to your main desktop (exited Chrome).

I too hold a hot burning spot in my heart for dear old photobucket since they lost us all the trip pics I had loaded in the last 5 years.
