I mainly use my UMB plan to browse the many forums I belong to, including this one, which i guess falls in to the paramaters that UMB is meant for. Recently I have found that when using Speakout, images posted on forums via photobucket no longer load. Very frustrating, and I would say probably the reason why I will be moving on to something that is not becoming more and more crippled. I can't even use my phone on the train anymore, despite having a decent signal the UMB just doesn't work most of the time. I needed to send an important email yesterday and it took a good 20 minutes just to get it out. Unfortunately UMB was a good idea, although somewhat limited. I might not have expected it to get beter, but I didn't think it would get worse!

I don't think Photobucket have problem specifically with 7/11's UMB. It might have been other issue. For example, photobucket have hotlink policy, some forum also have their own specific policy. Photobucket also might go down sometime. I suggest always use a back up host like imgur.
At the time of writing, Photobucket works fine on 7/11's UMB.

Not working for me. Posted pics on multiple forums multiple forums and all I get is a box with a question mark. if I click the box it does transfer me to the image on the photobucket site. But in both forums nothing. Works fine on computer btw. I've also noticed that non photobucket images are often very low resolution and extremely pixelated (mostly on facebook). Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

yes, UMB does at time being pushed down when the local tower is busy. hopefully when they charge actual data, it is no longer second class citizen or else president choice will be my destination.
images via UMB are all being download and re-size and cached on the proxy server which at times can get weird.
