Tinypic/photobucket is evil!
Edit: Tinypic seems to have backed with their stupid plan so for now at least, us foreigners can see and upload pictures.
I still won't trust them or photobucket, personally

This thread says it all, but in case you don't feel like plowing through it (as it'll probably grow big), tinypic now bans all those outside of USA, Canada, UK and Australia to see their images or upload to their account.
You might wonder what photobucket has to do with this. Photobucket OWNS tinypic so by this they probably hope to steer the non-English native speakers to get a pro account. What is worse is that they didn't even bother to warn people about this so if you're outside their special selected and deleted your pictures out of your computer, you might be screwed.
I have for the bigger part of my simming "career" used photobucket. I'll do that no longer since a company they own ban me and the majority of the internet from seeing their pictures, and I want to suggest that you do the same, because this is really unfair.
However, I won't be deleting all my photobucket pictures and reloading to alternative server becasue the time that would go into re-linking... O.O (Yes, I b lazy!)
This post by Avant-Garde on GoS suggest 5 alternatives so if you have no idea what to do, I think this list should be better than nothing as a starting point.
