Has anyone else been receiving Photobucket "It's almost time to add more storage" emails?

I've been receiving them for almost 2 months now (Everytime I upload at least one picture). The first email (on the 16th July) informed me I'd used 86% of my capacity, which didn't really bother me as I've been using it now for over 7 years and I've reduced how much I upload a massive deal recently, so being 86% over 7 years is just over 12% a year, even if I continued uploading at my old rate I'd still be good for over a year. Yet today (less than 2 months later and after receiving 10 more emails since the first), I've just uploaded one picture and it's informed me I'm on 99%!

(On checking the site, I'm actually at 98.85%).

Well to me, that maths don't add up!

Nope sorry dude, haven't had any emails from them, but to be fair I don't upload very much..

I don't expect many people to be receiving them to be honest mate. I have 2400+ pics in just my project lude's folder

Dunno if this helps, but Flickr now has 1TB free storage available on a free account if you run out of space on Photobucket.

Cheers mate. I'm probably just going to either delete a load of crap or see if I can open a second account.

You have a gmail account yes? If so, you have a google+ account (whether you use it or not) and therefore a huge photo storage space just waiting to be exploited. Exploit it.

I do?! I'll have to look into that then

Flickr may offer 1tb but unless they've changed their policy you can only view the most recent 200 photos unless you upgrade to a pro account.

No e-mails here either Nafe.
Believe I'm at around 75% capacity
