Photobucket seems to be having problems at the moment so until they get it sorted there are likely to be avatars, smileys and general imagery either missing altogether or not displaying correctly.

Proboards servers have been subjected to a DDoS attack, for anyone interested in what this means ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attackThey have been working full out to get it sorted and are gettting there. Always someone wanting to spoil the little pleasures for the rest of us  x Tig |

Just got back from shopping and pleased to say that I missed all the fun....just checked and it appears that the attack has been thwarted but they are still keeping an eye open incase of being attacked again....
At this point may I say that I honestly and truly cannot see the point of trying to bring servers to their knees and messing up so many people lives....what it is - a little boy's game - huh!!

The Big Boss says that it is possibly another DDoS attack - if so, be prepared for more possible problems.
