      PHOTOBUCKET CHANGES WILL AFFECT OUR FORUM   07/13/2017

      Photobucket has changed their rules of usage. They are not allowing embedded photos to forums with the simple accounts all of us at GALS have. The mods are really annoyed - Photobucket wants $39.99 A MONTH which has to be paid in advance in one sum of $399!!! Can you imagine? Some of us have an account that should allow us to have our photos 'hot linked' as they call it, through December 2018.   There are alternative services, but they all are charging, too. This will mean the end of our avatars, signatures and images of Gerry that we're so fond of sharing in our posts.   Image Shack will still allow sharing, but they are charging for that service, although not as much as Photobucket.   The images cannot be hosted by GALS as that would drive up the cost of hosting, which we already struggle to pay.   We're looking into alternatives.   To find out more about the issue:  http://support.photobucket.com/hc/en-us/categories/200056995-Sharing-and-Linking   http://support.photobucket.com/hc/en-us/articles/115010128088-What-users-are-affected-by-the-changes-to-our-3rd-Party-Hosting-policies- If you were a Plus Account subscriber in good standing as of June 1, 2017,

Just a quick message to you all. I know we sound like a broken record, but we have enough money in our coffers now to keep http://gbgals.com open for one more month. That's it. Our fees are nearly $200 per month and without that, the site goes dark.
We are so appreciative to all of you who have contributed in the past to the site and have kept us alive since 2005. We would really hate to have to shut down the site, but we can't personally pay for the server fees anymore.
To make a donation to keep the site live, please use our Paypal link: support@gerardbutlergals.com.
Again, we appreciate and love you all!

Hi becozy - I'm wondering if you are thinking about letting the site go. I know everyone has gone to Facebook. I would send some money if I knew the site was going to continue. I know you can't keep it going without the funds. I am unsure what to think/expect.
