That is why I ALWAYS, SaveAs the picture to a folder on my Computer, that why if the Links don't work, I can still have them and I can upload them Via, Photobucket or whatever.



Also, I forgot to mention about this in my previous post..

I do the same thing (download the pics, then re^upload to tinypic\photobucket) so I have a permanent copy.. BUT I do it for 2 reasons.

First is like you mentioned about a lost link, and the second is so that I am not sending the FR info to the site I got the pic from (it's not pulling from the original site, so they can't complain and\or change the pic using the same name but a different pic... some of those can be really nasty, especially on a family friendly site like FR).

Yeah, I need to learn how to use Tinypic, because for some reason Photobucket will move REALLY, REALLY SLOWLY after a few clicks on my computer.

Plus you are right, putting it on your own site is a good way to avoid any copyright issues and I have a few Pictures removed because the source wasn't........the best, like ones involved jokes about Batman and Robin for example.
