As a heads up:

"I just got this message when I went on tinypic from my location in Germany.

Tinypic is no longer accepting uploads from international locations, and links are turned off. If you have content on Tinypic, you can still view the URLs and the content, but only on Tinypic. To upload, share, or link content, please go to Photobucket.com to register an account. You will need to upload your content again to your Photobucket account, but you will be able to share and link your images and videos. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and hope that you enjoy Photobucket, our premier image and video site

Upon clicking for more information:

Tinypic International is changing. Beginning September 23rd, you will no longer be able to upload content to Tinypic and your links will be turned off. Please begin using Photobucket to upload, share and link your images and videos."

This is probably the reason so many tinypic secrets are messing up.

Same with Ireland. For now.

Wait no, I got that wrong. Ireland's one the selected countries. Bollocks.

Gah, damnit. Another reason to get back to the UK asap (like I don't have enough already lol).

Hm, either that, or they're just staggering turning it off in different countries and Germany was one of the first.

Alas, Glorious Nippon is not one of the select few :( I never used tinypic, but you can't even SEE any pics uploaded there anymore now :/
