Simply paste old non-working (for you) links in ImageShack and select "url" and press upload.
You'll get a new working direct link from an ImageShack server.

But it has a load, so if you have too many you host they don't show up until you delete.

lol now i can c tinypic pics again... they changed policy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinypic
On Sept 23, 2010 Tinypic announced without warning that they are no longer accepting uploads from "international locations" (i.e. locations outside of the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, and other "white countries") and that all links are turned off. A reason for this has not been provided. However, the services appear to have been restored to their former state, again without explanation.
:rofl:

wth ^^

We heard from many of our users in regards to these changes and we appreciate your feedback. Tinypic has restored linking to your images and enabled uploading. Please rest assured no content was removed from the site. We tried to notify users on Tinypic and requested they move their content to Photobucket. Unfortunately this messaging was insufficient and has taken many of our users by surprise and we apologize. Our intent was to begin combining some of the best features of Tinypic and Photobucket, thereby offering users a better experience. Any changes in the future will be better communicated. Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience.

Spam less. In the USA, there is absolutely no notice of any kind indicating what the original poster mentioned.
