Wondering if those of you here who use jpgbox, are able at the present to access that site as usual? I tried unsuccessfully last night and this morning so far. Don’t know if I’m being blocked or if that site is down.

Hi all, as of right now, I'm able to post pics from my account. Here it is:

No problems (so far!)

On my end, none of these photos are showing, just a URL code and a blue box with a question mark. Anyone else?

This is very wierd. I still can’t get into the site with any of my devices, nor can I see the pic posted above.

I just tried to go to jpgbox and now it is a web page that sells boxes. Bunch of nonsense. Once again it looks like it's time to find yet another image hosting site.

Not to say misery loves company, but I’m glad to see it’s not something I’m doing wrong. Hopefully this is just a temporary thing for site maintenance or such. I rcvd an email from them not long ago on an unrelated subj. If this is still going on Monday, I’ll try to find out more via email back to them.

jpg has been out sense yesterday, looks like it may have been sold, I already have a new provider. To bad it was a decent provider for a while.

Okay, so who is the new provider? The rest of us are going to be in the hunt for a new photo host and if you have found something that works well, the rest of us likely want onboard.

Lot of chatter about imgur. However, free sites seem to disappear eventually. Remember Hunt101? Now it's jpgbox Apparently we got what we paid for with jpgbox and Hunt101. jpgbox may not have sold the name. They may have failed to renew either through choice or neglect. There are operations that monitor renewal registration dates for expired registrations and snatch up un-renewed domains, register in another name, and hold them hostage for a price. Not saying that's what happened here, but it has happened with others in the past. Gil

I went there today and didn't see a photo hosting option, just endless headlines. I will try again.

Imgur works well and is fairly simple to figure out.
