Fotopic went into liquidation. Whether you can get your pictures back is still unknown.

Quoting from http://www.bve-terminus.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1444
Snappy Designs Ltd, which owns the image-sharing website Fotopic.net, is going into liquidation, director Stephen Dyer has confirmed.
Dyer has been forced to issue a public statement after Amateur Photographer (AP) tracked down the Fotopic.net boss earlier today.
In his statement Dyer said: 'The company has ceased trading due to an unexpected, significant decrease in revenue and I apologise that our efforts to recover from this have not been successful.'
Snappy Designs Ltd has appointed Jeremy Bleazard of XL Business Solutions, based in Cleckheaton, West Yorkshire as liquidator.
Dyer claims that photographers will be able to access their material 'in the near future' if the liquidator manages to sell the business.
Whether Fotopic.net customers will see their images again is far from guaranteed, however.
Even if the business is sold, the website that hosts Fotopic.net would have to agree to the transfer of images, said Bleazard in an interview with AP.
The Fotopic.net website is estimated to hold tens of thousands of images that users have not been able to access for weeks.
Bleazard estimates that Fotopic.net holds around 30,000 pictures, though he was not able to confirm this figure, nor the total number of customers.
One source has suggested to AP that Fotopic.net holds around 70,000 images.
Among the victims is Richard Hall who said he paid Fotopic.net £90 for a 'Premier Service and renewed his subscription recently.
'It's not a lot of money but a lot of time was taken, on an ongoing basis, editing, uploading and captioning photos... All this now appears lost.'
He added: 'Some users use the site for business purposes, they must have been really hit by all of this.'
Oh i c..Really wasted sia. :(
