SympathysSilhouette Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 On June 30th 2017, imagebam and imgbox will shut down their hosting services. The intention of the staff is for most if not all of the images which are currently hosted on those two sites to be moved to Bellazon itself. We would ask the members to stop using those services prior to that time and either upload their material to Bellazon directly or alternatively use a photo-hosting site other than imagebam or imgbox.

Michael* Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 On 6/14/2017 at 5:52 PM, GetOffMyLawn said: No!!!!!! Anyone know why they both are shutting down? From what I understand, Imagebam, Imgbox and Sendvid are all run by the same company, and that company is one of many to have been repeatedly called out for offering their services to known pirate sites. So apparently, the shutdown is a result of ongoing pressure and legal threats. Quote
SympathysSilhouette Posted June 22, 2017 Author Posted June 22, 2017 Update: Thanks to Maddogs efforts, the majority of images previously hosted at imagebam and imgbox have now been transferred to the BZ servers. As it looks now, all of the remaining images will be transferred by the end of the day (depending on what time zone you are in this might mean something different so I mean likely within the next 12 hours).

Clauds Posted June 28, 2017 Posted June 28, 2017 Imagebam also removed their announcement of shutting down and replaced it with a new one about finding new partners to get their host alive and well Quote
