A HERETIC I AM

Fucking Photobucket absolutely SUCKS compared to how it used to be, and I have dozens of photos in threads on DU that are hotlinked from there that I have to update.

I have a several threads in the Cooking and Baking group that look the same way.

The process is tedious as hell, though. First I have to download them back to my desktop, one at a time, because some of them are so old, I deleted them long ago, or they were put up using an old Windows unit and I now have a Mac.

After downloading them, I have to upload them to another service, and I've been using PostImage which works well, but then edit the thread and enter the new URL. Doing the shots for that one thread will probably take me the better part of a couple hours, and - again, I apologize, - I am one of the worlds premier procrastinators!

I appreciate that the thread still gathers eyeballs, and I'll try and get it sorted out in the next couple of days.
