  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    I tried using it, but most of GIFS were too big. I tried resizing them. They ended up looking like crap.

    Pimpandhost is much worse. Have to wait 20 seconds to even see an image.

    I don't see any ads or popups (desktop) using adblocker.
    On mobile/tablet is possible too to hide ads; a bit more difficult but possible.

    I switch from Pixhost (low quality thumbs) to imgbox. Imgbox is 3x slower to upload than Pixhost but much better thumbs.

    Once again, AVG is blocking imgcredit.xyz declaring it a dangerous webpage only this time it's URL: Malvertising... and that is with every thread that contains imgcredit.xyz images and only with pages that use imgcredit.xyz.

    Hopefully, it's just AVG acting up, but this is second time in less then a year imgcredit.xyz gets flagged as dangerous webpage so something is obviously a problem there.

    I get the same thing. AVG definitely doesn't like imgcredit. It's probably the advertising they accept, they show as "URL:Malvertising"

    Same with Norton. According to floridagalbabe's sig, the site had a hardware failure. I don't know if it's been fixed yet (or if it's related), but it seems to have had issues with certain antivirus programs since then.

    Personally, I don't care, but he (and the forum) might be concerned that users with AVG/Norton can't access the host. Maybe it's not lot of users, but it's losing some traffic.
