I think my comcast account is gone. Well Ive had that one for years and just kept on using it well after I stopped using comcast. So now that its gone, everything uploaded on the storage is gone. I didnt lose much, just my sig. Looks like I may have to start making a new one.

So, how are you hosting the image now?

[PyroMenace]

I think I can do it through my current ISP, charter.

[sirean_syan]

The properties of your sig still say it's on Comcast. You sure you need to move it?

[Quemaqua]

I see no sig.

[sirean_syan]

Huh. Maybe it's in my cache then.

In that case, you lost nothing!

[PyroMenace]

Hooray!

Of course, the instructions for uploading stuff to charter is totally idiotic.

Instructions for Uploading Files to Your Webspace using Internet Explorer
Step 1: Open your browser and type in ftp://webpages.charter.net. Click enter.
Step 2: Enter your username and password in the dialog box. Click 'login'.
Step 3: Open the folder on the hard disk where your files are located.
Step 4: Position the folder window so you can see both it and the Internet Explorer window.
Step 5: Drag and drop the files from the folder window to Internet Explorer to upload them.
Step 6: View your webpage by going to http://webpages.charter.net/"username".

That doesnt work... like at all.

Well, for the time being you're more than welcome to use my little hosting space.

Is there a certain reason you are avoiding Photobucket?  I use it for my sig and I've never seen it go down.

[PyroMenace]

Well I remember once using a site that offered free webspace like that. Then one day it closed down because it got too popular, then I discovered that my ISP can host images. So as long as I have internet, I have web space.

I'll just use Sy's space for the time being, Im too tired to try and figure out this Charter bs.

Something wrong with ImageShack?

[TheOtherBelmont]

I've been using Photobucket for at least 3 years now and it was around for awhile before I was using it.  I don't see it going away anytime soon, the funny thing is I have my own webspace, but I don't store my sig/avatar there, just my website stuff.  I use Photobucket for only my sig/avatar and any pics I need to post in a forum or something of that sort.

I think idol is hosting mine.  I'm not sure.

[shock]

IGN hosts mine.  I win.

[Quemaqua]

But by admitting your associations with IGN, you openly admit to being associated with a bunch of tools.

[sirean_syan]

Except for the fact that he's simply using their bandwidth and space without actually being connected to them. He's leeching from IGN, using them. You could say he's made them his bitch... except that might be a bit extreme for a few kilobytes of data.

IGN-lover!  Go back to your double negatives and run-on sentences!
