Sorry everyone - it looks like some, possibly all, my images have disappeared off WABI. When I checked the Photobucket site nearly all images in my "WABI folder" have disappeared and pages are coming up a bit weird. Has anyone else had problems with Photobucket?
Possibly the site has been hacked although other folders like my old cycling pics seem fine. Hopefully normal service will return soon. Unfortunately there is no email or other facility to contact the site administrators. If they don't get their act together soon I will have to kick PB into touch!

I would just like to add never store valuable text on websites either, take it from me it is also not safe!

thats one of the dangers of using these third party sites, but i suppose both methods have their pro's and con's though With some forums I've used you can't upload pics straight from your own PC, so I upload those pics to photobucket and go from there - they're still on my own PC as well though I just checked my photobucket account and everything is there and OK.

Just checked Photobucket again - pleased to say everything appears to be working again and my photos are back in place. Yippee!
Alan & ayjay - I agree - I keep all my images (full size) on my computer and/or storage media but I must admit I wouldn't always remember which image I had used in posts here!

I had noticed yesterday that one of your photos had vanished, Alf... I just thought you'd deleted it from your Photobucket account by accident. I'm glad they've resolved whatever the problem was.

Well perhaps "nearly" everything is resolved!
