ALL pictures missing

For some reason ALL the pictures on my forums have gone missing. They were there yesterday, today all I have is the fallowing line.
(Example)[img:034c]https://i.servimg.com/u/f48/12/98/03/13/gw49810.jpg" alt="" />[/img]

This is not he first time this has happened. Last time everyone had to repost all their pics, I really dont want to have to ask t hem to do this again.
My questions:
Why has this happened?
how can I fix this
and how can I prevent this from happening again in the future?
Any and all help is appreciated. And I apologize if I have put this in the wrong spot.

There has been problems with servimg and I would suggest you use tinypic.com

what does that mean

I think he means to go to Tinypic.com and upload there. It will even give you a code to directly use for forums (the [IMG] code).

Well, that line you showed us has a few errors in it, just by itself. It uses bbcode with html, so I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work at all.

Hello,

I believe Servimg.com is undergoing some maintenance with their servers ( AGAIN ).

I have also noticed that this problem was fixed last night.
Because the problem is persisting, I suggest that you clear your cache & cookies.
