Is photobucket still increasing the storage costs? I have not heard anything about it and I still have 2 paid subscription photobucket accounts: one that is used for comicbooks, the other is used for my art.

Information about the plans is still advertised as:

$5-$10 a month is reasonable for the service in my opinion and is a far cry from the $399 I was hearing about here on the boards. Does anyone know if the increase is happening????

They had to back off on the big fee changes due to the business climate.  They've recently issued some statements about that which you can google on the internet.

My account, which has huge storage (16% full with 4323 photos) called a Plus20 , costs me something like $29.99 a year.
