| Thanks! It's a shame about PhotoBucket, though, I hope these images don't disappear! They are hosted at postimage.org. | |

| I'm panicking myself! I've been using Photobucket for over ten years and I have dozens of folders and thousands of images. You can download them all by folder, but it's a loooong process. I started today. So far, mine are still displaying, but I got an email from Photobucket a few days ago that they will disappear. Not the actual pictures on their server, but the third party posted images. Ugh! | |

| Well I managed to download everything in one go. I clicked the 'Library' link at the top, so it brought me to 'My Bucket':  Then the download link appears on the right:  Mine is an ad-free account, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference. | |

| I'm going to try that right now! Thank you!   What alternative photo sharing site do you use? I also use Imgur | |

| I use http://postimages.org/. However, I still download all my pics regularly, just in case! Postimage.org are also in the process of setting up paid memberships...https://blog.postimage.org/ has updates on this. | |

| Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to store my zipfiles somewhere in the cloud: mediafire and box and on my back up drive. I downloaded my Bucket, but it only captured stuff in the main folder, not in all the sub folders. I did however, manage to download all my folders. The really big task starts now. Updating aaaaallll my posts before my pix start to disappear. I gather it happens all at once, so I'd best begin. Thanks so much for your help and advice!!!  | |

| No problem. It's a shame that so many websites are at the mercy of image hosts, because when they decide to go, that's it! ImageShack caught me out. I had a paid account for years, and then all of a sudden, half my pics disappeared! That's when I learned my lesson. I downloaded all of my images, cancelled my paid account with them and am slowly uploading all of my images to my own site, as I'm fortunate enough to have one. ALL of my site tutorials utilise PhotoBucket, so I'm currently in the process of editing each one, which is taking sooo long!  | |
