I noticed alot of ppl on these forums post pics with links pointing to pics.bbzzdd.com. But everytime I click on one of them It just leads me to a page cannot be displayed page. Any reasons why?

If you're clicking from work, your employer probably has that site blocked. I doubt youtube.com would work for you either.


I'm at home. Youtube and every other site seems to work fine. Maybe its cuz I use firefox?

or it could be a DNS or DHCP issue with your ISP or internet connection.

Just try clicking on it a few times, or refresh the page. they come up after a few times for me sometimes.

Contact your ISP and ask for their help. Also, make sure your browser is up to date. Also try lowering your internet security settings.

The server is definitely up. Paste a traceroute from you to the site and I'll see if I can help.

Site loads just fine for me.

It's either your ISP or your computer/browser.

It times out for me most of the time too. Note though, I'm on a campus network, whose speed during business hours rivals that of a fast 56k connection.

Works for me.

Now, apartment808.com - that's up and down like, err, well, never mind.

P.S. pics.bbzzdd.com can become even more convenient if you check out my sig.

Wow. Ungrateful much?

It's free *
They are selective about linked URLs
It's free *
The site is run by fellow ATers
It's free *
The site actually has standards (no porno, no EBay links, etc)
It's free *


So what's your problem with it?


* = Notice a recurring trend here?

That site seems to be down a lot for me as well. I wish that people would use ImageShack instead.

Actually, I sometimes can't see the images on there as well, but what's worse is that I can't upload pictures to there either, for some weird reason. I can't remember the error it gives me because I haven't used it in a while.

I have set up an uptime monitor for that site, which will check it on a 1 minute interval. If the site is indeed going down often I will make sure that it's corrected.

For those of you that are saying that you cannot currently access the site, please post complete traceroutes so that the issue can be looked at.

Q: What does bbzzdd stand for?

A: Nothing. The story: I have friend, Ernie, who used to walk around saying, "bay-bee," in a really annoying voice. To really annoy people turned it into "bee-bee." When that lost its annoying edge he went to, "bee-bee-zee-zee." You see where this is going, right? Anyway, I registered the domain, bbzzdd.com, as a laugh. Being I had it laying around I used it for the pics site. The rest is history, "bee-bee."
