HA! AOL is going to quit photo hosting
I just got this on my AOL acct:
Dear AOL Pictures User: We are sorry to inform you that, as of December 31, 2008, AOL will no longer provide the AOL Pictures online photo service. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. The good news is that AOL has partnered with American Greetings® PhotoWorks® to enable continued access to your pictures through the PhotoWorks service. PhotoWorks provides unlimited free storage, just like AOL Pictures, as well as a variety of options for making creations and sharing your photos. You can access your images on PhotoWorks simply by providing your screen name and password to register for a free American Greetings PhotoWorks account. Register for PhotoWorks now. While we recommend the American Greetings PhotoWorks option, you may also: * Download your photos to your computer using a new tool that will enable you to quickly save multiple images and albums; or * Purchase a DVD archive of your images. Please note there is a charge for the DVD archive based on the number of images you select. It is important that you take action no later than December 31, 2008. After this date, you will no longer be able to access your images through AOL Pictures. You may choose from or combine any of the options listed above, based on your needs, as long as you do so by December 31. Please go to AOL Pictures as soon as possible to register for American Greetings PhotoWorks for continued access to your pictures or to save your images on your computer or to DVD. Here, you will also find more information and step-by-step instructions on each of the available choices. We sincerely appreciate your being an AOL Pictures user. It has been our pleasure to provide you with an enjoyable online photo experience. Sincerely, The AOL Pictures Team A fe years ago, they quit hosting newsgroups, so that's when I went with google, now it seems like their cutting out their lame photo hosting. From people I know who have used AOL for pic hosting, i don't know of any who were satisfied, and went with Photobucket, or somebody else. I'm suprised AOL hasn't tanked already. |

I still get ebay notices on it, and AOL has tried to clean up considerably, but their still in failure mode. I'll say this, when I first got in the internet in '97 I was dumb as a box of rocks, and am very little smarter now. And to their credit AOL was helpful. The I realized there were other options out there. So... |

When they came up witht heir "free ediotion" the wife and I signed up on it, and refused any more payments from her credit card, just to make sure they still didn't try to tap the funds.

For about $60/year you can have your own domain and website at GoDaddy.com Those of you who have long term AOL e-mail addresses; you can cancel your AOL account but keep your e-mail for free, in fact I haven't really used AOL in years and found out that they were holding my access for me for free........as long as I access it thru my own DSL account. I don't know how or why but I can access all of AOL and it's free. HTH. Same way with me, Bud. I got a hold of a local ISP which is really pretty fast, and that's when AOL and I parted ways. I still have all access to AOL (as if i cared to) I don't access AOL very often, because it usually drags and is slow, and they have to occasionally erase their overload of "artwork" I suppose AOL was ok in the dial up days, but they didn't have very many local access points, and their system was usually clogged by overselling accounts. it took forever to download some minor stuff, and if somebody sent you a link to a website, it could knock you offline. plus they had time limits on how long you could be online. unless they can come up with something magic, I wouldn't doubt if in a year or so they didn't head down the tooooobz |

It's either that or retractable training wheels? Actually they are kind of cool. The spare tire and wheel they carry fits any wheel position. And supposedly they are very easy to maintain and repair. The problem with them is they are way under powered, or at least they used to be. |

That's the same "Terri" who cant figure out how to covert video files, who will be your "24 hour tech support". And fit your toddlers to the proper motorcycle, of course. So Harry, tell us about your new iron horse. Did you order the Ural? A Ural? you mean one of those crudely made Russian copies of a 1936 BMW that was captured in ww2 ? Not for me. The Russkis have made and actually do make some interesting knock-offs of German and Eastern European cameras, but I've never been much impressed with Russia's vehicles for consumers, including their motorcycles. Exactly. I think most of their automotive ideas were confiscated in WW2 and not much changes. I did hear that their cameras wern't bad, but everythign else.. *eh.... No, I wouldn't have a Ural anything *shoved proverbially sideways. Unless you want a Harley, or a Harley-like motorcycle, and there's certainly nothing wrong with that, the best place to look for motorcycles is among the offerings of the Japanese manufacturers. I was tempted by a Ducati for a while, and I did take a look at a couple of BMWs, but in the end I went for one from the land of the Rising Sun. What have you purchased, in the last few years, that was made in America?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Cheap beer? |

Too funny, Harry the low life comes up with a classy answer like that above, then in the same breath, says this: "You slobs need to stop projecting your lack of taste onto me." WAFA..... |

Remember, this is the guy who bought a bike from some kid who told him the seat height should be relative to the ground, not the pedals. snerk *Or wait, might it be that it was yet another borrowed picture or another lie ?? *;) It's a bit more complicated than a simple-minded fool like you can conjure, apparently. The bike came from a first-rate store where I was properly measured and fitted and, in fact, was told the proper seat height was where my feet just touched the ground. That was not the measurement we used for the proper frame size or seat to pedal distance. Oh...I don't shop at Wal-Mart.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Whoever told you the proper seat height is relative to the ground was just as big of an idiot as you. |

There are several brands of beer from Mexico I enjoy on those rare occasions when I have a beer. I also like some Italian beers and some German beers. I like some of the Sam Adams brews. I don't like Bud, Bud Lite, Miller, Miller Lite, Coors, or any of the ****y American beers you probably drink by the 12-pack every night. |
