    Anyone else know whats happening, or is it just me? Every time I try to go to photobucket it sends me to a domain site, is it dead or just under extended maintenance? Hasn't been working for two days.

    I still can't get to the front page, hopefully they fix that soon 'cause most of my images are in my account.

    i found this on the web

    Yesterday, Photobucket the world’s most popular photo sharing site according to Hitwise had its DNS records hijackedPhotobucket Hacked by Turkish Hacking Group to return a hacked page courtesy of the NetDevilz hacking group, a Turkish web site defacement group most widely known for its defacement of the adult video site Redtube earlier this year. Photobucket users across the world are reporting minor outages of the service and problems when trying to access their accounts, the consequence of what looks like the type of DNS records hijacking that redirected Comcast.net to a third-party domain last month.

    Third-party site monitoring services indicate that the site was down for 15 minutes yesterday, from from 17:39:39 to 17:55:10, whereas according to a comment left by a Photobucket Forum Support representative, the downtime due to the propagation of the corrected DNS entries was longer :

    “On Tuesday afternoon, some users that typed in the Photobucket.com URL were temporarily redirected to an incorrect page due to an error in our DNS hosting services. The error was fixed within an hour of its discovery, but due to the nature of the problem, some users will not have access to Photobucket for a few hours as the fix rolls out. It is important to note that only a portion of Photobucket users encountered the problem and that no Photobucket content, password information or other personal information was affected by the redirect.”

    Hmm well it's still down for me, but I should expect it to come back up in the near future?
