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.

so... if we uploaded something to tinypic BEFORE the 23rd and submitted it to f!s, we would still need to upload that somewhere else and resubmit it, right? i'm not sure if i get it

If you have a Tinypic account and are from outside the US, the only images you can see from Tinypic are your own. And to even do that you have to log into their site. :\

You can't upload anything new, and if you try to use their provided links to post your images somewhere else, it won't work.
