Hi there effCup!

After reading your post I checked the few posts of mine that use P&H & they too have that "Image removed", yet were working yesterday.

Like my Laura Antonelli, Amy Sloan & Barbara Crampton posts.

Fortunately I'd already put up alternate Imagebam links for any P&H posts I'd made, due to some users being unable/not wanting to use them.

If this does not right itself I'll just replace completely with those alternates.

Yes, I would advise waiting for a bit before any such actions. It may simply be an auto-generated message that's being thrown up, and thereby seeming to mislead, when the cause may be something unrelated/temporary like some of their servers being inaccessible, or something. /shrug/ Not saying that is what's happened, just advising against precipitate action.

Yes, same here, noticed that posts made this morning using P&H in a thread I was reading earlier are now showing as 'Image Removed'.

Just checked another thread at random, and exactly the same, although this includes posts from last year, so it's not just affecting stuff posted in the last day or so

gave up on p+h long time ago use turbo image right now

So Imagebam is still totally flakey? I haven't been able to view or download any images from there from the last few pages of the MILF and mature ladies thread.

...and as you suggest, looks like it might have just been a temporary glitch, as it seems to have righted itself already

I am unable to download anything from Imagebam today; a white page with imagebam branding; "previous" and "next" boxes, no "loading" box - and a whirling doughnut of death in the tab.

Nearly every ImageBam image I click on is dead... some of them only a month or two old.

As you'd expect Imagebam are having more than a few glitches as they attempt to juggle a move to a new host , recover a bad server , while accepting new uploads.

Deezer & Al Gebra have already figured out most of the galleries posted from 30/3/17-12/5/17 on server 101 are currently just thumbs (possibly the bad server)

Migrating a database the size of Imagebam must be a monumental task.
No doubt users will experience temporary service and/or functionality bugs for a little while.

Imagebam/Imgbox are no longer shutting down

Other servers outside the above dates appear to be going offline daily and then return
At least thats what it looks like in my firefox browser - bottom left - flashing message
about looking up server xyz thats opens into white screen

Totally different list today

17 , 45 , 61 , 65 , 69 , 73 , 77 (from 1 post in shardays thread)

31 dead out of 110 on imagebam / imagevenue
http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/sho...9&postcount=10

PS spoke too soon 1, 9 , 10 , 13 showing same signs in vanda vitus post 1

There are still accessible imagebam galleries from what i've tried over the past weeks
but i suspect there are a lot of naturally occuring (dmca notice takedowns)dead pics on top of the server issues


PS just tested this lingerie post - server 85 on the blink

http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/sho...&postcount=149

Overall 27 of 34 on imagebam were accessible - 6 were actually dead - 1 was on server 85

Another post - same offline servers - 9 ,10

[flashming]

Imagebam is just not downloading any pictures is it down? all the others seem to work for me?
