Anybody having issues using it today???
I cant share pics today.Right after getting an email yesterday saying they are now Photobucket Australia,which is a subscription service by the looks of it.
Who would have thought????

Interesting.
I click on the share link,get the box with the options,when you click on which option you no longer get "copied".Highlights part of the addy,wont let you highlight all of it then deletes the addy.Same happens if you open the pic and try to use the share links on the right.

No dramas here (beyond the normal Photobucket crap..) :D

I use the app on my iPad - works fine.

I've never got on with it.. Causes everything to freeze. If someone uses it in a thread, I never open the links.. Photobucket often has the b replaced with an f in this house. :D

Maybe I do it different.
I am posting pics on my MSA to LT95 thread.
With the photobucket I click on the bottom line under the pic I want. Then right click and copy then paste into the thread. Thats all I use it for.

I use it to host photos that I post to forums, I reckon that I'll find something else, it has become really slow to load and has many more ads than it used to. They have also been bugging me to upgrade my (free) subscription.

Research done, Imgur it is, Photobucket is dead to me.

It's worthwhile resizing to 1024 x 768 prior to posting to imgur as well.

:Rolling::Rolling::Rolling:

It has a similar reputation around here. Have never liked it - and the changing of the letters is very appropriate IMHO. :(

I use Postimage.org (http://postimage.org/)

They have had a couple of glitches recently, to do with the funding of their site and payment for the host server etc - but it all seems to be resolved now. Very easy to use (I only use it for hosting images to forum etc - not for storage of my own photos). :D

I was going to say that the problem exists between the keyboard and the mouse...

I use Imgur.
It's tops.
