Well said (jn my oppinion). Brings to mind a part of an old saying "least we forget".

I bet Bernard left one of his "intimate" photos on your account. That sick bastard . No wonder though they banned you for using the swastika. It's copywrighted material. Photobucket is using it for their underground section.

It took a Subsim forum member to give me an answer when Photobucket wouldn't.

Yes, we all start to be really fed up with all those sites that pull the plug on us one way or the other, from one day to the next without any warning, like Filefront, Photo Bucket, and may be a few others...

It is time we put all and I repeat all our eggs in the same basket !!

We need a poll, and ask every member to upload their files at only 1 or 2 places where we know this cannot happen. Lets sack those guys !!

It takes too much time dedication and work and see that all what you guys do is all gone in a blink of an eye...

I had my swastika flag picture from SHIV deleted aswell. Tho, my other swastika mod thingy for HoI 3 is still there.

The swastika is always abit risky to upload to places like PB, especially if you dont add any description to it explaining what it is for.

Yes, it's historical icon and shouldnt be censored like that, but it's their site and they make the rules.

That's why I say we should have a place that we would know is ours, and where we would'nt have to justify anything for 1 or 2 swastika here and there for the purpose of the game, and no chance for whimsical and sudden erase of files.

It appears that someone at Photobucket finds History, SHIII, WWII, U-Boats, U-Boat crews and other historical photographs offensive.

WITHOUT A PHOTO ACCOUNT I CAN NOT POST IMAGES TO SUBSIM OR CONTINUE MY D.I.D THREAD. DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ANY OTHER SERVICE I CAN USE????
Bad news in did mate...
I use the ImageShack, and at this moment i never had any kind of problem at all...

maybe someone took offense to the amount of German stuff you had maybe they thought you were a Hitler youth or a nazi or something.
you should have your stuff backed up on your own side instead of depending on external sources with which you have no control over.

But who?...took offense. I mean you need your login to access your albums, no? Are they for public view? Or was some admin randomly trawling the albums. Granted it is a free site etc BUT this banned for no reason shiite, sux azz. In fact, if I ever got banned like he did, I would send them emails forever telling them to ESAD!

Bleh ..now you got my agent orange acting up...

It's always someone's political agenda. On YouTube much like PhotoBucket, people's media material often gets banned because it does not agree with the political agenda of the admins of the website. Don't take it from me, I hate the swastika as much as anyone else, but I don't see why they'd do this. Millions of people were murdered under the hammer and sickle and I don't see anyone banning it. Or the fact that a neo-Nazi party in Russia called the National Bolsheviks has adopted it on their armbands like the swastika. Like the brownshirts of old, they beat up people who don't agree with an agenda. I swear the PC people do it in a more polite form, but do it anyway. They are communists anyway who want to see our freedom lost to give away to appease other "races" Just ask them. I know how you feel. I hate it when stuff like this happens.

It's the wonderful politically correct people who get offended on behalf of someone else! They should all get back to worshipping Mary Whitehouse and leave the rest of us to get on with life.

isnt there a mod to take the swastika off the Bismarck model or is it in the game itself

about the site they would have to keep an eye on what people are loading on their systems for security and also some nut case could be putting anything on there so they have the right to remove anything they dont like so no there is no privacy especially since sep 11.
