Logan, Photobucket has implemented a bandwith limit on non paying accounts. Here's some info from their FAQ section:

Q: I am getting a "Bandwidth Exceeded" picture in place of my images, what is bandwidth?
A: Bandwidth in Photobucket terms is a measure of the number of bytes passed over time via direct linking, etc. It is calculated by adding up the size of each of your images as they are sent from Photobucket. Example: You have various images of 25K each in size - they are viewed by by 100 users on your favorite message board in one day. 25K * 100 requests = 2500K (or 2.5M) of bandwidth used in one day.

Q: How often does my bandwidth usage reset?
A: Bandwidth resets each month on the day you originally registered. Example: you registered on the 5th of June - your bandwidth will reset on on 5th of each month.

Q: I removed a number of images from my album but my bandwidth has not decreased.
A: Bandwidth is cummulative over time, it does not go down. Please see the question on what is bandwidth. Your bandwidth usage does reset on the day you registered of each month.


I got this from the email they sent me:

Going forward, free accounts will be limited to 25 megabytes of storage and 1,500 megabytes of bandwidth per month.
