So apparently I exceeded the Photobucket bandwidth limit for this month... meaning no more header and mood themes or graphics of any sort in this LJ for the next 3 days.

... That's new!
It had never happened before.

Have you tried uploading things to imageshack?

If it makes you feel better because of the tinypic disaster none of my little userinfo guys show up anymore. xD I'm not sure how to fix that problem either, which is probably the worst part.

Does it have a better bandwidth than Photobucket?

lol even the little LJ user icons are gone for me, it's so sad.
But what tinypic disaster?

I'm honestly not sure. But I've never seen anyone have the same issues with it that come with photobucket.

Tinypic shut down service outside the USA. So if you live in another country all your images went POOF a few days back. My layout was created by a person outside the country hence all my little userinfo guys are gone.

Hmmm I'll definitely look into it. It does seem to happen rather a lot with Photobucket all over the place, you're right. I just had never happened to me before...
I might just put some "essentials" into imageshack at first, like LJ stuff, header, moodtheme, user icons and the like...

Eeek! Seriously? That's just awful. I'm glad I didn't have a tinypic account, then.

Oh, that's such a bummer! :( Photobucket has cut down on their bandwidth SO much! I've never heard of so many people exceeding their allotted amount as they do now. :(

Tinypic was indeed a big mess for a little while there. They've since backed down and restored service for everyone, no matter what country you're in. They posted a sort of "Oh, we had no idea people would be upset about that!" message on their site that said they were just trying to encourage people to use Photobucket (who owns Tinypic). Yeah, that's a GREAT solution, everybody goes to Photobucket who has cut their free bandwidth down so much that you'll -- surprise, surprise *eyeroll* -- need to take a paid account with them to cover all of your hosting needs! o_@

*shakes finger at Photobucket/Tinypic for that*

Anyway, I see you have an awesome new Sherlock header up, yay! \o/ It looks awesome! :D *hugs* ♥!

I never had any trouble with Photobucket before, I don't get why they decided to cut down their free bandwidth so much. I don't know what I'm going to use next month, seeing as I definitely WON'T pay anything. I might make multiple accounts or something like that.

Awww, you like it? lol I literally made it and uploaded it seconds before you commented on it.
I was even going to make an announcement post and everything. :P
I needed to update my header anyway. I loved the Legend of the Seeker one, but I've had it for, like, two years now. lol or something.

Oh, I definitely love it! :D (Not that I didn't love the LotS one as well, of course! ;) )

And I hear you, I've had my Nine and Ten header up for 2 1/2 years, yikes! O_O I can't seem to decide what I want my new header to look like *blush* but hopefully I'll come up with something before another 2 1/2 years go by! O_O *giggles* ;) ♥♥♥!!!
