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 only the States can upload? What about Canada?

OP who sent the heads up to techno

Yeah, I was wondering what was happening with secrets that have already been submitted. I mean, it sounds like one might still be able to view the pics on tinypic. Would it be possible to be a bit lenient with the 'doing it wrong' rule for now?

I submitted something recently and I don't know if that will even still work (unfortunately, I already deleted the secrets from my computer again :()

I'm guessing tinypic is US based then?

As long as they don't make it that international users can't see the actual pics others uploaded, then I guess it's okay...

that is SOME KIND of bullshit.

FYI I'm in the UK and not getting the message, must be selected countries

[identity profile] verschreibsel.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah I'm in Germany and didn't even read the last post because so much is uploaded with tinypic that I can't see anything unless clicking a direct link :(

[identity profile] thechameleonnn.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
lame.

[identity profile] rosehiptea.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Damn, that really sucks.

[identity profile] arathe.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Is there another site like tinypic that doesn't require registration to use that doesn't have this problem? Because that's some kinda lame. :/

[identity profile] iamashamed.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
This really sucks.

[identity profile] roaringmay.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Anyone else who can't access all their uploaded pics? All of mine show up as thumbnails, but most of them won't load to full size. :/

[identity profile] rampant-chaos8.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, that's stupid.

[identity profile] lostwiginity.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)

That's my facial expression right now. It's on such a level of WTF that I can't even reply with anything else.

And now to begin the long process of moving all of my shit over to imageshack/imgur

RUDE

[identity profile] lostwiginity.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
P.S.: Could you put up a modpost suggesting a different website that is good for anonymous uploading, and *highly recommend* that people use this instead, even if they live in the US?

[identity profile] caelith.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
That's gonna be a pain in the ass.

[identity profile] wandaxmaximoff.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm from the UK and was able to upload a pic to there just. Plus, my previous uploads there - like my LJ header - all seem fine.

Maybe it differs from country to country?

[identity profile] lalachoy.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
...Why? I really don't understand why they need to do this? Is there some big issue I'm missing because I don't get it.

[identity profile] leafing.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
What the fuck man :/

[identity profile] tee-sama.livejournal.com 2010-09-23 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Goddamn. Seriously. It's like Veoh all over again.
