Neil Young's style is hard to comprehend, let alone rate.

He was an innovator and had a unique sound, but was not my favourite of that era. I am not saying he was bad by any stretch, just not my cup of tea. Having said that, I own a few of his LP's.....

Well, your nuts  IMHO  Neil got me through so bad times when I was young he's almost saint.

But then people go on about The Who and how talented they were, I could never stand them.

You guys have seen MOTOR CITY

"Too many Datsuns in this town" I've never heard that song, Neil has always loved big American cars.

i like the guys music. anyone who can play guitar and the harmonica at the same time and sing has some talent, and a sense of humor

Back to Phooto Bucket, from good ole wikipedia:

History[edit]

Photobucket was founded in 2003 by Alex Welch and Darren Crystal and received funding from Trinity Ventures.^[7][8] It was acquired by Fox Interactive Media in 2007.

In December 2009, Fox's parent company, News Corp, sold Photobucket to Seattle mobile imaging startup Ontela. Ontela then renamed itself Photobucket Inc. and continues to operate as Photobucket.^[9]

In June 2010, Photobucket was named in the Lead411's Hottest Seattle Companies list.^[10]

On June 28, 2017, Photobucket changed its Terms of Use regarding free accounts and third party hosting (hosting on forums, eBay, etc). Only the most expensive plan, at $399.99 per year, now permits third party hosting and linking to forums, etc.^[11]

This new business model has caused thousands of forum DIY's and write-ups with explanatory pictures to be rendered useless. About 500 words into the linked document was a declaration that free accounts would no longer permit image-linking to third-party sites. Ebay and Etsy have also been affected, in addition to many forums and blogs. Thousands of images promoting goods sold on Amazon and other shopping sites have been removed after the photo-sharing service changed its terms.

 

I wonder if they were Canadian too...............hmmmmmm

Photobucket's management is incredibly short-sighted and doesn't understand their customer base at all.  Weird.  $400 today could be $800 tomorrow.  They don't even understand why people are upset.
