whats up with the site

an i the only one seeing this? i have photobucket out of bandwidth boxes every where.its almost unreadable in here. job for the mods me thinks

I don't know why photoibucket is allowed to come up like this?

This has happened before.

it's because the forum images are hosted on a public account.

It's a rather basic and unprofessional way to host the forum.

Each time the forum images are viewed....so everytime anyone types the url of PF into the address bar.....the pics for the backdrops are viewed...and the bandwidth the account uses goes up.

The way to get round it is to either pay for a photobucket pro account or to get hosting and move the forum there....probably using a better board than phpbb.

Eventually photobucket will get tired of the account ecxeeding it's bandwidth allowance and just suspend the account or terminate it.

Could you please get in touch with enzo about it. If he needs to get in touch with me to confirm that is fine.

I would like you to do it as you are much better than me.

Best I can do is pm him on here.

He hasn't logged in since October.
