I figured it would go well in Art Discussion since it's... art-y.

Well, what do you think of this? Do you use tinypic anything, and were you affected by this?

I find this kinda frustrating (like really, really I-want-to-throw-a-shoe-at-someone frustrating).
For someone like me who has been using tinypic as a hosting site for more than half my art, and I'd say I have about 150+ images there... these news are trés bad.
About 70% of my art is officially dead, and I'll have to re-upload it... if I still have the files on my comp, that is v.v

 ^Even more frustrating. My 150 first artpieces are on PB. But I don't like PB at all, and then I found Tinypic.
It was all I wanted from a hosting-site...
And now they shut me down and ask me to use PB. Seriously. Bleh.

Does anyone know of any other good hosting sites? I've tried PB, tinypic (ish from now on dead to me, traitor >.>) and imageshack.
I don't like PB nor IS much, but I'm considering re-uploading all the... 608... images I had on tinypic, so I'd like to know if anyone has any option to reccommend ^.^

Twitpic's an alternative, if you use Twitter.

Eh, I've been using PB from the beginning, so it doesn't really make a difference to me.

I honestly never liked tinypic either lol

 And now... it's back up for international use again o.O
Does anyone have any info on what's going on? All I can find is several forums where the international-thing is being discussed, but no place where everything actually is explained.
Would be nice to know whether or not this could happen in the future again x.X

Uploading sites don't matter much to me, as long as the Jobs done.
PB was the first Uploading site I ever crossed paths with, it'll be the Only Uploading site I'll ever cross paths with.

I'm just too lazy to Switch now. xD

 I have a PB account, but since day 1 I liked Tinypic better and used it extensively ever since. Now I am seeing this message displayed: http://i51.tinypic.com/30937z4.jpg Note the weirdness of posting a pic related to tinypic using the same site. :-)

There probably were legions of people complaining about the little stunt they pulled and decited it was a horrible idea in the first place (which it was).
Hopefully, something like that won`t happen again.

I guess this doesn't effect me considering I use PB or deviantart, but it is rather annoying to see it go.
