is anyone else having an issue with tinypic?

I've been using them for years to post up pics for sites like this that don't allow direct uploads. The main thing I liked is you could upload as a guest and just get a link to the pic without having to sign up for an account or anything. There are limitations to that style but it's mostly fine for quick uploads that you don;t need to be forever permanent.

But for the last couple weeks every picture I upload says it was successful and takes me to the page to get the link but the link just goes to a tinypic warning message that the image has been deleted or removed - even though it was just immediately uploaded right before.

so I even signed up for an account thinking maybe they just clamped down on the freebie stuff. Uploaded several pics, made an album and all of the images in the album just go to that warning image saying they were removed.

I've written to TP support 3 times with no response. I wonder if they removed those emails too.
