I researched and photobucket is doing it for the money; trying to force us to subscribe 2 their service; minimum $60 per year
Hey, s.g. as u seem 2 b our resident 'maven of the Internet' (imho); can they do that?

I'm just seeing the placeholders on the homepage. Guess this is comes of not having an admin checking in & keeping on top of things?

Yes, they can do whatever they want. The images are being hosted on their site. And yup, this is happening because the admins are very MIA. They could easily fix this. I'm very worried the site could just disappear.

s.g. thanks for the (albeit depressing) clarification. As far as this site's m.i.a. admin, I seem to recall, motorcitymade (one of the this site's old guard) used to refer to themselves as 'your sometimes vacant admin'.....
anybody else know mototorcitymade well enough enough to contact them?

OMG! We can't lose our Tim place!!!!!
Maybe we can put together the money to keep going!
So much love had been put into it, it would be heartbreaking to lose it!
Should we just contact photobucket and see how much they would charge us to keep it going? If it would be the $60 for a year, that would come to just $5 a month.
What do you all think?

I'd be happy to chip in for Photobucket! The icon photos look horrible.
Of course I still worry about ProBoards - I believe someone tried to contact them to tell about our predicament? Things aren't getting updated, ie there should be a new forum for SCD. And of course if some spammer or troll strikes, we wouldn't have a way of getting rid of them. Should I try contacting them again? Motorcity seems long gone.
There is another admin - jess1z1 who I think I have tracked down since she uses the same user name on different sites. I sent her a FB message. Hopefully, if it's her she can make one of us an admin so we can help with those things.
