I can no longer log into my free photobucket account.  I assume the pics are gone.

 
If you have a free photobucket account, your pictures should still be there, but only as stored-photos.  They are not "hosted", so you can access them for viewing, but cannot post them here for others to see.

Your photos may not currently be visible to you because of the outage I mentioned in my earlier post, but according to staff at photobucket, no one's photos have been lost, and they will eventually be accessible again.

The Tomcat thread is Alive and Well

But they are signs not flats.

I will try again and hope my post does not disappear again. Back in Oct 2012 a member named Tomcat posted a number of railroad flats that we could use however some 9 years later these flats all have a Photobucket overlay on them. Could some one tell me what I need to do to use some of these flats again. Thanks

Are you referring to the signs Tomcat posted for use? If so either he or someone else doing the same thing showed up on a Facebook site making available all those signs again. A search may be in order.

Photobucket experienced a major outage, I believe, just before or just after Christmas.   While my account was somewhat useable a few days later, those of many others are still not yet working at all.
Mine seems to have now fully returned, and staff there has re-assured me that no ones' photos are gone, and they will eventually re-appear if they were visible prior to the outage.

Photobucket began charging to use their site to store photos.

If I'm not mistaken, photo storage on photobucket is still free, but hosting for photos, if you want to post them here or elsewhere, f'rinstance, will cost you, although not the almost $500.00 yearly that was originally proposed.

Photobucket began charging to use their site to store photos. If he hasn't coughed up the subscription fee, the pictures won't appear, just a Photobucket logo.
