TinyPic is shutting down

I remember using TinyPic some years ago, though I didn't have an account on it; I just posted the images without an account so that was pretty inconvenient. :8: Nowadays I've been using Imgur since it does its job really well (and this time I actually have an account so my images won't just get lost). Being on PokeCommunity definitely influenced my choice to start using Imgur instead and I'm glad it did.

everyone used to use tinypic back when I was still rom hacking. tbh, imgur was far better and everyone moved on to that.

I am amused they suggested people move to photobucket, and a bit worried the two are owned by the same people, it seems...

Photobucket became irrelevant many years ago, and it amuses me people still use them after they held photos of non-premium users ransom for almost a year

What I find disgusting is that they close tinypic and offer you to move all your content to photobucket, instead of offering the premium option within tinypic. If I have to move all my stuff, I'm pretty sure won't fall again for the same trap in another site of theirs. They should just offer the premium with tinypic already. Furthermore, photobucked is outrageously expensive, starting at $4.99 monthly. It's half the price of Youtube Premium or Netflix, $60/year for just storing 100 or 200 average size pictures with a few thousands view per month. Not work such big amount of money.

Encouraging people to move to Photobucket, hahahaha, 2006 is coming back y'alllll

But wow, TinyPic was super easy back in the day, but then it started breaking images, and giving people bad popups and just kinda went to shit.

I kinda wish it was imgur they are so selfish. Imgur have disabled the ability for Someone using a mobile browser to access the website and log on. I can't get the imgur app becouse my one is "too old"

I remember I used tinypic to upload stuff way back ago, Just encouraging people to move to photobucket, they just ransom your photo until you pay premium service. Also ever since imgur emerge, people moving towards imgur quite a load because there is no image hosting that utilized CTR-V from a screenshot or clipboard and tinypic dont have that function. F
