Why cant we upload pictures anymore. It says because of continual abuse that facility has been removed ? What's the go ?

I'd say Freestyler who hosted that server cracked the irrits and has shut it down.

You need to use a hosting site. I use Photobucket.com

Then you copy the direct-link URL from the hosting site and click on the Img icon above. Insert the direct link after the square brackets, then click on Img again. The photo will then appear when you submit the message. If you're unsure on whether you've done it correctly, hit preview and it should show up there.

photobucket ain't that great...

How many times have you gone into an older thread to see that "photobucket image missing error".

If someone deletes a photo out of their photobucket or stops maintaining their account the images disapear.

Maybe fr33styl3r needs some cash donation to expand the hosting or maybesomeone else can take over duties???

I aint going to argue over whether photobucket is good or not, but I've been using it for about 4 years now and never had a drama.
