I CAN SEE! I CAN SEE! :D

Yay! Now I can go back to the important work of squeeing over the season premiere of Supernatural.

What happened at Tinypic? I go to work for one day I miss exciting stuff :[

[casatthedisco]

They made an announcement that anyone outside of the U.S., Canada, The U.K. and Australia would not be able to upload or view content on Tinypic. They encouraged users to transition to Photobucket (which, unlike Tinypic, requires for you to pay for more bandwidth). So as of yesterday, anyone outside of those four countries couldn't even see gifs from Tinypic, which most people on LJ use. I guess they received enough complaints that they lifted the restriction. Be glad you missed it and didn't spend hours trying to find a new place to host your pictures like a bunch of us did.

Wow that is horrible! I'm really glad they lifted it because it's not fair to those out of those countries.

Yeah, I have no idea what they were thinking, especially considering people in those countries would want their stuff to show up for people no matter where the viewer is from.
