Just wiped out my pictures that were stored here. It was fun while it lasted.

hi Meya! Was it an awful feeling? I'm 75% done hosting ~ all customer info is gone, no inventory info is stored ~ just a few dribs and drabs left until I finish up this week. I should be packed up and ready to turn in my keys by Tuesday *sigh*
Thanks AW ~ it's been great! Best of Luck!

If you don't delete your images, won't they delete them automatically if you didn't sign up with them?

I'd think they delete your imagines if you don't sign up, but there is something carthartic about "house cleaning" Plus this is a lot easier that cleaning my RL house

I ceased loading images and prepping ads.
Ready to clean out files and dump remaining images. Anyone heard if AW is considering backing off the FVF and registered credit card requirement?

Thanks for the reminder Meya! I had some stored for auctions I haven't gotten around to yet. Now they're safely on my isp's server

I am leaving everything in until late on the 13th. I'll clear it all out then. I'm still looking for a good picture hosting site (My server has webspace but I'm still interested in something else) so if anyone has any suggestions email me please
I dont mind listing one eBay, straight through. Just will miss the convenience.

EG
I'm sure they will delete the images for us ~ I think I was just trying to remain "in control".
While AW is doing their number crunching, I'd like them to see how rapidly their numbers decline since their announcement. Someone's gotta be watching the back door, right?

I hope that we will get better service from AW now that they are going to be charging us. It's been really bad lately - I list auctions and when they appear there's no text and no pictures!!! Also, response time has been extremely slow last couple of weeks - especially last night!! Might have to look around for another picture site.
Any suggestions?

My AW images were slowly deleted overtime when the policy changed a few months ago about. I went elsewhere h.com however they started to charge for various reasons so I was thinking about coming back to AW for image hosting then this. Oh well. Such is life.
In my image hosting there are just blank squares because they have expired. I probably should go in and delete them before they charge me for the empty spaces!

I have a shop with up to 8 images per item (nice photo editing tools, too) and free feature to send the item to auction if you don't want it in the shop anymore. I haven't used AW for some time now (hence my absence on these boards, as I'm sure everyone has remarked on numberous sad occasions ). [email protected]

Me, again. Tried to get an auction uploaded on AW tonight and continue to get slow response or no response. Just makes me so happy. So, I figured I would try listing directly through EBAY - they allow 2 pictures at no charge and it's pretty easy. Not as convenient as AW with being able to select listing time, plus other perks, but at least my auction got listed! Try it! Maybe, you'll like it!!

I noticed yorequest, as I'm sure others did also. You contributed some very fine posts.
