I don't know how many private party people will fork over $400/year to host/store pictures. Google Photos is free and has unlimited storage. IMGUR that Dawg is using is even bigger than PB... I think they host 20 million and they are also free and according to what I've read, they will always be free as they have some serious money behind them. Flickr is also out there.
PB _might_ get 10% (maybe) of their users to pay, but even professional photographers have alternatives and would probably stay away from PB. Every automotive forum I belong to is chirping about the mess. Some allow infinite editing by thread posters and if they have the time and patience, they can probably slowly get working pix back into their threads. Team Camaro doesn't allow editing after so many hours and now the mods are trying to decide what to do to allow thread fixes. Its a mess thats for sure.
