I have an imageshack account that I haven't accessed for quite sometime until now, I don't see anything like you posted above but there are quite a few of my images that have nothing in the thumbnail, when I click on one of those I get a can't be found error message.

Some had most all their images showing this one I posted. None of mine show that...but when I linked a photo in the AK forum yesterday...an hour later this is what was showing. When I went back and looked at my gallery...it shows the normal photo. Some already had their images showing this morning...and some did not.

These hackers want to eliminate full-disclosure of security breaches? What a bunch of dip****s.

If they ever catch the people responsible they should have a rat chew off their privates so they cannot spawn further generations of morons.

Well, that's their own fault. I hope nobody here entrusts their original pictures to a website. Pictures should always be backed up in at least two places.

Lot's of folks were using imageshack to host pic's for blogs and websites. And so now all those are covered with this black crap.

I noticed it last night on our family forum. Some of the smilies hosted on Imageshack were hacked.

About a third of mine were hacked, that's around 200 pictures. I can't believe anyone would depend on a hosting site as a sole backup. A guy was complaining this morning that he had some diagrams on there, no back up.
