It always baffles me that some would use online services or 'the cloud' as image storage instead of image placeholders. Best practice is to ALWAYS keep the original on one's hardrive and upload a COPY to an online gallery or one's favourite image site (Flickr, smugmug, et al.) or even to a cloud storage service. The cloud is just like those puffy things in the sky outside: e-p-h-e-m-e-r-a-l.
Always save to your disk and then make a backup to another local drive.

Kevin, I guess that means the existing photos already posted in threads now will be gone, or no? That would be a great loss the knowledge base that has been created here...
Only if they were hosted in the Albums section here, which most weren't.
Most were hosted at 3rd party sites, and that depends on those sites.

That's how I always did it. Never saw the appeal of using a hosting site, esp. as their terms and conditions of use could be subject to change. See you on the flipside!

Are we still on the old site? Or are we on the new site? It's Monday, Sept. 2, and earlier I got a site under construction page. Hmmm.
