tealin | R.I.P. Blog Pics (Reply)

It's been just over seventeen years since I first signed up to LiveJournal. Shortly after, I learned how to embed images from a third-party hosting site. Photobucket served me well for years, but in recent times it's got a lot more difficult – you may have noticed the watermark on the wallpaper if you visit my blog proper – and now that I've finally had the time to go through and pull down all the images I want to keep, I'm shutting my Photobucket account for good.

This isn't going to make a massive difference for new posts here – I've been 'hosting' new blog pics on Tumblr since 2012 – but the archive will cease to be illustrated. Gradually I'm putting my library up on Ko-Fi, but it's going to take a while, as it's just about the lowest priority thing on my plate these days. Someday Tumblr will bite the dust. Hopefully by then no one will want to see my old scrawlings. Fanart is so much better these days anyway. Let the kids take over, they're all right.

I've had to pay a bit just to access my Photobucket account to get the stuff off, so it'll remain up until the end of the month. If there's something you particularly want to save, go find it now and do so. Remember February is only 28 days.

Thanks for the memories!
