Awesome, first 30 pages of my build are now worthless thanks to photobucket. I'll try and get in there and see if I can fix it. The only reason I quit photobucket is because its update wasn't compatible on my old ass samsungs os. So I wasn't able to even use the site/app at all.

Well that sucks. the only thing I have on there is my signature pic and for some reason its still working. I have a copy saved on my computer as well. That's part of the reason I have a separate 1 terabyte HD just for pics and stuff, and I back that up to a removable drive. I never trust someone else with my stuff.

damn that sucks. i was wondering why the pics all had broken links. and it would take a lot of time to re-edit all those posts/photos even if you still have them. i remember one of the Mod's at FullSizeChevy said they "accidentally" deleted my whole build thread on my 95 GMC. i was floored! Years of progress and facts all gone in seconds. I never went back to their site again. devastated

Yea lesson learned the hard way

i use my own server and websites to host my own images (for the last 15+ years). So if you have your own domain name/hosting you can just use an FTP client to upload your images. But if you don't, you can always just use Dropbox or Google Drive which are free for the most part.

I use imgur.

So I'm basically ****** unless I pay the $399 fee.
Pics for 4 vehicles and 2 sport bikes and detailed images for all 6 builds gone forever.

I had most of these pics on a laptop that crashed on me just a couple years ago. Most recent pics on a phone that broke on me beginning of this year.

I feel like such a dumbass cause external hard drives are so cheap now days.

That sux!

We just put a shut off on my dad's 97 when it started draining. Too lazy to actually get it fixed. So every time he parked he popped the hood, shut off the battery, and then turned it back on when he came back. It was a quick fix but it worked for what we needed.

 

[05Single]

Didn't even mess with it. Just sat in the garage. Summer gets pretty busy around here since it's only 2 weeks long lol.

Check the cluster for the power drain or fusebox
