Welp, Photobucket is not a fan of the account I use for hosting layout images right now, due to an excess of hotlinking. To get the account to function again is $400/year, and I'm definitely not going to pay that because that's 3-4 times as much as hosting your own website. It's going to take me some time to get things uploaded to a different server and change the links in the posts, but I will try to set something up.

Also, it's likely that I may not go back and update some of the layouts that are 5+ years old, because the coding for them is outdated at this point anyhow, and I doubt they are being used a lot. If there is a particular layout from pre-2012 that you're desperate to keep and need the images for, you can comment here with an email address and I will send the images as attachments. Comments are screened.

Thanks for your patience!

ETA: Looks like it's striking some icon sets too, so I'll have to handle that as well. If you need a particular set before I get to it, comment here and I'll bump it up the list.

ETA 2.0: For anyone desperate:

Check out an archive.org version of my directory, right click to view an image of your choice
Delete the archive.org part of the url (it will say http://i276.photobucket/etc) so that you're viewing the actual image on photobucket
Look for the link to the album name in the upper left, and click on it
You'll be able to see all of the icons when viewed on Photobucket's website.

Downloading is going to be a pain and slow going, and I understand this is a ridiculous hassle, but if someone's desperate for a face, there you have it! :)

	I was looking into altering Open Road(?) slightly (remove the header, alter the coloring)! But I doubt I'll need the images? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I feel your feels. Also, I can't access crap because of IJ's screw up a few months ago. I've re-added you and stuff. Do I need to do anything else? (Reply to this) (Thread)

Hi, there! I'm sorry to bother you, but I have been using one of your layouts on one of my RP journals (

phoebehalliwell) for awhile and Photobucket being jerks some of the images on the coding is broken.

I was trying to just deal with it because I know that you're busy trying to fix things, but it's finally irritated me a lot and I thought I would ask for help?

It's the Å Julie, du Vakker Naiv Sjøstjerne layout here: http://whatevart.com/layouts/vakker/preview.png

Thank you!

	Hi! I updated all the color schemes of that layout a while ago, so if you download the zip files and upload the images to your own host, you should be good. If your own Photobucket account is preventing you from using the images on IJ, you might need another image hosting provider? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thank you! Someone else had set it up for me so I wasn't sure about fixing it without messing it up. I've downloaded the zip to fix the coding they did before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	igpayatinlay 2017-11-12 05:45 am UTC (link)
	Well, nothing changed with the coding? It was always just that Photobucket wasn't displaying images on other sites anymore... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	phoebehalliwell 2017-11-12 05:47 am UTC (link)
	Yeah when I moved my own graphics I forgot to get him to move his. I'm reuploading the images to my own domain right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cool! :) Just making sure it wasn't anything where you were seeing something I wasn't, re: broken coding. (Reply to this) (Parent)
