Hello, @soticroma

Ubuntu 16.04 has reached its end of life and because of that it has been removed from the API as of June 28 and the images were removed as from May 26

You can still use the custom image option and spin a droplet using your own image. Custom images are Linux and Unix-like images you import to DigitalOcean. You can create Droplets based custom images, which lets you migrate and scale your workloads without spending time recreating your environment from scratch.

Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
