Hey everyone i've been noticing while going through many different sites that many shark fishermans pictures that were stored in photobucket have been deleted because of inactivity within the last 90 days.It's sad to see a complete tournament that was hosted on a website with all the pictures in place and then from one day to the next POW!!!some of the pictures of the nicest catches are gone.I don't know how to remedy the problem once the pictures have been deleted.I can only suggest that we research the problem and try to find the solution.it's possible that photobucket has been overwhelmed by the amount of bandwidth space that is being used daily to store the billions of pictures from around the world that are in it's memory banks so they routinely make more space by cropping inactive accounts.One suggestion that would prevent your pics from getting wacked is to go into your account once a week and post a picture somewhere,or send a picture to a friend in an email.I have also noticed that if you move your pictures from one album to a different one inside photobucket your pictures in your in whatever site you posted them in will disappear ,,,,it happened to me with some of Rene's pictures and I had to reinsert them one by one.We encountered this phenomena when looking back at past year's tournaments and in particular at some of Pete's(reelemin) pictures but have since found the problem with many other contributing anglers on many different forums.If anyone has the answer on how to recover pictures once photobucklet has deleted them we would like to know.We need to find a photo sharing site that does not eliminate inactive accounts without first sending out a Warning of some kind ,,,,,maybe tinypic.com or some other site.
SUGGESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS PLEASE!!!!!

I'm no internet guru, but you should be able to use your site to host pics, like separate photo albums for each member
I'm not sure you'll be able to recover removed images.
I store my pics on both photobucket and imageshack in case something happens....also just signed up for snapfish.com, they host photos and have a printing service, first 20 4x6 pics free
