tanithryudoI was looking at the pics in the MUD gallery and noticed that almost none of the links to the enlarged versions of the thumbnails existed anymore. Does Imageshack delete images after a certain amount of time?
Cuz in their FAQ it says "Your images will only be deleted if they do not adhere to our Terms of Service. Otherwise, your images will be available forever." And the terms of service says that "Don't upload anything that can be even remotely construed as porn, copyrighted material, harassment, or spam. If you do, we will ban you, delete all your images, and prevent you from viewing any images hosted on ImageShack®."
Now you might be able to make a really flimsy excuse for copyrighted material, but I really doubt it, so what happened to the images?
...In other news, I scrolled through the images I had loaded to GJ (not icons) and noticed a large amounts of broken links/images too. Le sigh. Image hosting is so unreliable over the long term. =_=
