old photos

Like Chris said, why would someone delete a photo from Photobucket. That's just more trouble than it's worth. I agree with Phil, and wish we hadn't lost so many great pictures here on this forum.

I quit PB when they stopped allowing me to copy & paste MY OWN photos for my own use. I still have the account but deleted some, and would rather just post from "my pictures." PB used to work fine until they felt the need to "improve" it once or twice a month. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Problem with Photobucket is that if/when the photos are deleted from the original poster's photos, they disappear from all other posts.

I can't understand why anyone would delete a photo one they uploaded it to Photobucket. It isn't like you will run out of space. I have thousands of pictures there.

The photos can be posted as an attachment on this site as well as using photo hosting sites. Photobucket etc... is easier for most folks.

Thanks c.o. Didn't know if the site hosted picture uploads or if photos were linked remotely. It's always nice to keep the pictures in house but can eat up a lot of server space.

Or were the pictures hosted remotely and not maintained? Moved, taken down, or such.

Gotta be one of the aforementioned... I'm thinking the earliest photos that you can't access were hosted remotely.

[Phil Clement]

Great pictures. One of my favorite parts of the forum. I apologize if this has been asked a gazillion times but why can't I see many of the photographs? Especially those posted early on in this thread. Is it because I'm using a Mac? Probably not I'm guessing. Or were the pictures hosted remotely and not maintained? Moved, taken down, or such. Just wondering if I can somehow access those pictures which I cannot now see. Thanks.

I figured you fellas would like that....

Wow, I sure killed some time at that picture site. Thanks Cory.

[Tom Lovejoy]

Very cool Cory, thanks.

Eric, they sure got inventive back in the day eh? Here's a blog that regularly features early photos....

I love to go through the 'Old Photos' thread from time to time because there is always something interesting. In this case we have a '21 or '22 J with a '15 or '16 pedal start transmission. It was probably put together to aid the disabled rider in starting the bike.

Wall of Death pic from 1929

An email sent to me contained this photo. Lion in sidecar at Revere Beach, MA 1929. Looking on page 159 in the book 'The American Motorcycle Girls' by Cristine Sommer Simmons there is a description that explains this photo with Marjorie Kemp. It just look like the lion is having fun! BobAMCA#6738.

Check out the toolbox behind the oil tank on the Indian. Aftermarket accesory?
