What an incredible road trip Adam, and beautiful pictures as always.
The Mazda basement looks like a fantasy, what a place!

... and then Sharka met a Cappuccino.
It was tiny and tasty. It revved to 10,500.
I got to ride in the car AND drive the car!! It was absolutely manic and insane. I loved every minute. I tried to get my thoughts together and do a blog post about the Brappuccino. Not sure if I quite conveyed my feelings adequately.
Cliff notes: I want one bad.

I bet you're glad you have your own site for your pictures aren't you Adam??
Imagine if Sharka's build thread had suffered the PhotoBucket fiasco
You want a good car. I want a good miata.

Greasemonkey put it perfectly
Long story short, people relied on PB's free image hosting service for years, many people linking the images they stored on PB's site to their own site, forum, business page, etc. Their new terms basically render every image link broken unless they're paying an expensive annual service.
You'll probably find at least half of the build threads on here have been destroyed by said changes. The people who used PB's storage for non-profit are the main sufferers in my eyes.
Personally, free accounts should still have access to third party image hosting. 2GB in 2017 is sweet FA in terms of storage, the amount of micro-management you'd need to commit to with such little storage would be insane so there'd still be a need for more.
My empathy goes out to people with year long build threads that have just fallen apart, most people won't even have copies of the images attached.

Just another reason to use Flickr. 1TB of free storage and 3rd party image hosting. And Photobucket wants you to pay $400/year for half the storage! Haha
Back to Sharka content please!
