Why are the pictures in the signatures changing?

Are we being invaded?

I had to go into admin to delete some including mine. Looks like image shack or photobucket got hacked. Sorry for the deletion Jeff.

No problem. Just freaked me out a little. Thought I was being hacked

Guess I should delete everything on image shack. It was image shack. Thats what I blocked anyway

Yup, its image shack. I logged in and the pic was there about 8 times.

Y'all might want to check your image shack account if you have one

I ended up deleting about 30 bogus pictures on my image shack acct. Seemed like they were being posted as I deleted them.

I never liked Imageshack. It was always slow to load, sometimes it would even time out. I still have that problem with it when other people use it.

Use Photobucket- it is easier to use and I've never had any issues with it responding slow or timing out.

Thanks,

I deleted my remaining pics there. tried to delete account but it kept timing out. Have to do it later.

I have been using servimg and it seems to work better

I finally set up my own hosting for that stuff. In fact, I can share it out for y'all with just a little bit of work. I'll work on that if you want, but of course there are a number of big name sites out there that do it.

ImageShack was originally set up as a pic hosting site for goons and just exploded from there. WaffleImages took that duty over and is exclusively for Something Awful posts.

My avatar is gone.

Must be because of the image shack attack. :grindingteeth:
