everyone just save and reupload your images at imageshack.us or another site
keep in mind that it may not effect your own images, but it still effects the way others that have the issue see your images!

imageshack sucks.. the quality is poor o.O use photobucket atleast ^^

Where did you get this info? A quick search is not resulting in any official announcements about this.

Tinypic is no longer accepting uploads from international locations, and links are turned off. If you have content on Tinypic, you can still view the URLs and the content, but only on Tinypic. To upload, share, or link content, please go to Photobucket.com to register an account. You will need to upload your content again to your Photobucket account, but you will be able to share and link your images and videos. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and hope that you enjoy Photobucket, our premier image and video site.

It affects everyone's images. Only people in America (I don't know if it affects south america), can display images outside their site.
The reason you might be able to still see your images is that they're cached by your browser. Or in a cookie. Or something.
I don't know the technical words, but if you clear cache and cookies I'm sure they're gone for you too :).

Either way, better reupload while you can, than take the risk and wake up tomorrow seeing they're gone, right?

Dayum, I just reuploaded 25 signatures on Photobucket and then added them here in my gallery after deleting them all.

This is going to slam most of the forums that got users from both US and Europe / Asia etc.
I will not be able to see the signature of my fellow american friends

O wait... can Americans still see his image? Maybe they can help you get images back?

Maybe we'll need a sticky topic for reclaiming pics.... where Americans can help download pics from tinypic and host it on imageshack or elsewhere?
