It takes up to 3 clicks to reach a pic.
The sites header is "Image Sharing & Earn Money".

Makes me doubt that this is an acceptable pic host....

Sounds more like the bad old "url.cash" method.

Can you please link me to a post using this host so I can have a look at it?

I hate clicking onto images in which you reach a host where several clicks on this and that are required to open the image.
Number one, I won't go through that aggravation, and number two, I don't trust them and close the page.

Here you go!



I refrained from quoting this image posted by a formerly very appreciated member still contributing real valuable content , who unfortunately turned into a cash whore some time ago to my bitter disappointment.

Interesting host - i just visited with firefox in safe mode (all add-ons disabled)

The 10 second countdown mentioned on the pop-up ad started at 14 and never moved

Closed the ad and it said you did it too quickly

meanwhile 3 gif ads play




with add-ons running - no script (allowing all) better privacy

the ad pops up - the images are blocked and shown as text
countdown starts at 10 and moves - click to select image


Doesnt say much for those entering with no add-ons in play

I have not been able to open pics for 3 or 4 days now, am I the only one, or is this a common problem.

the last time I've got this problem, 95% fail and I get this message: Error: -200, Message: HTTP Error., File:

Has somebody any idea about the reason? What can be helpful?

I use Firefox and disabled adblockplus but that has no effects

I think it's you, I have had no issues with ImageBam, either adding or viewing images.

These three images did take a little longer than usual, but all uploaded in the end.

I am having the same issues with the error code when trying to upload.
Further even trying to open the above images, Problem loading page results.
This has been occurring intermittently for a couple of days now...
Possibly overloading on their servers?
For those experiencing the same, patience is the only option I guess..
For uploading give https://imgbox.com/ a try...
Just remember to use the 150x150 re-size option...

Sounds like a regional connection issue - somewhere along the route theres a bottleneck

According to here it was last down 3 days 11 hours ago from where they are

http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/imagebam.com.html

Sometimes it appears add-ons are interfering othertimes their not

Restarting the connection - sometimes helps - at least with my dongle it did yesterday

Just signed in no issues - clicked on pics above - no issues

Firefox 53.03 running no script , better privacy - both on
no ad-blocking extensions or
settings (browser via options/content or internet options/privacy on PC running windows 7)

1.53pm Australian central time it stopped working and came up with the reset message



restarted the PC - USB re-connected itself - working again

4.00pm and its back to the reset message - restarting the PC makes no difference
disabling all add-ons - ditto

10 minutes later after running the security suite internal cleaner
- equivalent of cc cleaner - made it work again

Something in the browser cache nobbling access?


PS 25/5/17

booted this morning - tested imagebam site from bookmark - reset screen

tried cleaning cache - same result

re-booted and gained access

re-booting about as good as it gets as a solution - for me at least
