Title: WHAT HAPPENED TO PHOTO BUCKET
Post by: Hummer3T on December 20, 2012, 02:52:00 PM
I have lost all my photos, It looks like some one has gone in and deleted them, folders still exist but pictures are gone?

anyone else had this issue in the last week?

Over the years a lot of mine got much smaller...almost thumbnail size.

Photobucket is a mess! Used to work fine for me but I guess as with most things in our society they have to "improve" things into uselessness.

I've never had any of the problems as mentioned above with Photobucket.

Actually, I'm thankful for the opportunity to have  free storage for my photos and free image hosting like that of Photobucket. A rarity these days!

Hummer3T, it seems as though someone has gotten your password and hacked into your account.

They don't ask you to sign away your life and your computer, and they don't tell you that everything is there's.  It's just a much simpler system to use, and all the tools are there.

I had a lot of problems some months back... sent in a complaint...got email help. Turns out that their new "upgrades" don't seem to work well with MSIE 8 (and others with MSIE9 say the same) I switched to Firefox browser and all ironed out... till the new set up occurred, but again, filed a complaint and got email help.

haven't posted in a while...almost afraid to go check now.   :scared:

I have not had any issues and I have to been the least computer literate guy on TG. I did opt out on the new version of photo bucket and stayed with what I knew.

Hummer, what browser are you using?
I went from PC to Apple, and at the same time started using Firefox. I like the Firefox browser better than IE, and have fewer problems. I have no issues with PB, now that they have made it so that I can post pics from my iPhone.

The new photobucket is beta and a lot of bugs are yet to be worked out. I got tired of the bugs and went back to the old one.
