    Which is why our recommendation after moving to the new site is to upload the images directly to lustria online. Mainly since that way we can be certain any images added to a post will stay online as long as the forum does.

    In reality we lose too many post images by hosting accounts being closes for various reasons, or the owner cleaning out images etc. Which could have been avoided. Not to mention, you never know when Image Hosting Service X decide to start charging as well.

    Well My old account was working until today,
    Just saying.

    I'm good on Lustria,
    But my old Warseer account is worthless now.

    I can't remember if I had anything on photobucket or not.

    I used to have the app on a phone but I quit using it because it got so kludgey with ads and pop-ups, every time I clicked on any function button, the app did something else.

    I managed to get into my old account.

    11 pages of 9 pix each page. It is still kludge-ridden with ad-spam.

    How would a bloke mass download from photobucket To save off everything?

    Thankfully all my stuff is on my camera roll, not some 3rd party site. Being a mobile user has its benefits.

    How on earth do you create subalbums on it?!?

    because to create an album is easy, but for the life of me I cannot see how to create an album inside another album...

    This is one of my favorite features of this site. Thank you @The Red Devil (and any others) for making this possible.

    Indeed. And once you have that functionality, it is difficult to imagine not having it. Other forums are ruined for me now.

    How do you exactly do it?
    When I want to insert an image (using the icon with a landscape on it), I only see the option to insert the image URL, so it must be somewhere else...
