My xanga premium expired, what's going to happen to my pictures?


We've made sure that you have plenty of time to save or recover any premium images.  We're thinking Xangans will have three weeks after Xanga Premium expires:

1. One Week of Free Image Hosting - First, after Xanga Premium expires on your account, we're actually going to give you a full week of free image hosting.

During this week, all your images will keep working, and you'll even have access to your "Picture Files Manager"  (it shows a full list of your images, for easy downloading)

plus

2. Two More Weeks of Free Image Storage - After that extra week of free image hosting, your premium images will finally stop working.  

However, we will keep a protected copy of your images on Xanga's systems for an additional two weeks, in case you want to reactivate them.

Altogether, we'll make sure you have three full weeks from the day your Xanga Premium expires to save or recover your Premium Images.

During that time, if you've got expired premium images on your Xanga Site that you'd like to keep, please do one of the following:

  • Make sure you've got a copy of all these images on your computer (if not, please save them to back to your computer from your Xanga Site)

  • Reactivate Your Premium! If you reactivate your Xanga Premium at any time during these three weeks, all your expired images will immediately become active again, and they will keep working on your site.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE

1. Your Profile Image Will Not Expire - your primary profile image (the one you upload through your "Public Profile" page) will keep working even after your premium images expire.

If you were using multiple profile images while you had Xanga Premium, then your extra profile images will expire as described above. But your primary profile image will keep working.
