I know it costs for the forum to host the pics, but it makes for a nicer experience. You get more pics because its easy to add them, you have no oversize issues if you auto size them, and older threads aren't full of a bunch of red "Xs" because a pic poster removed his pics from photobucket.

The time saved hunting down oversized pics in threads and the gaudy look of 640 pix warnings all over has to be  worth something. Not sure if the template this forum runs on would support it or if its even close to affordable, but it would be nice.

The public is the public. Asking them to get smarter, try harder, and follow directions is about like beating your head against the wall.  At some point its just better to put a stop sign up instead of responding to a wreck at the same intersection twice a month.

May try Photobucket at some point again, but the last time I visited it I came away with so much crap on my laptop the computer folks had to take everything off and reload programs. It was nasty !!!! Had full Mcafee protection as well, they reimbursed me my cost of the program, but not the $194 I paid to have the computer repaired.   :banghead:    :mad: . So if your'e wanting pics from me from Photobucket, hope you are full of patience and a good salesman   ;)

When I first got my computer, I didn't know how to post photos. It took me awhile and then I learned how.

Then, some sites had maximum pixel rules, (Trad Gang is one) for posting photos and I didn't know how to reduce photos in pixel size either. I finally learned that too.

I'm like everyone else. I like to see photos with posts on TG and other sites because for me, reading a hunting post with a photo is an added bonus.

But, I never berate anyone who doesn't post photos because I remember what is what like for myself trying to learn to how post and resize photos.

It took me a while to figure it out even with the follow along threads.  I did the auto resize when uploading them to Photobucket, they showed to be the correct size in Photobucket but when I added them to a post, they came over bigger.  Never did figure out why, but I blame Photobucket.  Had some pictures deleted along the way, but that is alright.  I appreciate peoples(Admin.) patience whith me while I figured it out.

I have only just learned how to save pics, and if LUCKY, I can even E-mail them. One thing at a time. Give us the "computer challenged"a break. For some of us it's not that easy
