  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Looks like most of my hotlinked images on imagesocket are down.
    I know they have a bandwith limit, but also newer uploaded ones are affected.
    Anybody knows if they are having trouble with their servers? Latest news on their site is from 2009 ..:confused:

    That's too bad since it seems to be the only allowed imagehost that allows porn AND hotlinking. Or am i wrong with that?

    had quite a few issues with imagesocket over the last couple of days (weeks?), but it seems as if they are kind of "recovering". more and more images are showing up again. let`s keep fingers crossed...
