Hello

I just noticed that the image hosting site ImageBam.com will close on June 30th.
So if you use this site to host images for our forum, you shall host them elsewhere and edit your posts accordingly.
If you know some members using it (like @ArcheoPtide), please notify them below or send them a private message, or their post will soon be full of

and our forum will become a big mess.

I suggest to use Imgur instead as it is nearly the only free site to allow "adult" images and that can show different sizes of thumbnails. Also, I guess it is one of the few image hosting sites to be economically viable.

Now I need to edit most of my posts, I have litterally thousands of backgrounds and example images hosted there (around 3000 to be precise, something like 4Go).

:eek::frown::confused::mad:

It seems that things has changed. There is not more notice on ImageBam that their site is going to close.

I sent them an email asking how could I download quickly all my images hosted there and they answered me this:

They still seem to have some little problems with their database, but the images on the forum seem to be displayed correctly.
