Photobucket?

[Interseptor]

Is anybody having trouble with photobucket?

[GRINCH]

Yes can't resize photos.

I spent over 10 hours(over3 days) with those people 3 months ago about the issues I was having with the site. Wound up losing everything I had stored there. Found out later they were breached by a hacker, haven't been back since.

yup that site is not  to great in my opinion just my two cents worth

Lots of problems.  It used to work fine for me, but I've had all kinds if trouble with it for the past 6 months or so.  Sometimes it wirks.  Other times it doesn't Can't tell you how many tines I have tried to upload photos to it and had my computer just lock up on me, requiring me to close it down and start over.  

I have no idea what has changed or what the problem is.  Some sort of software compatibility issue I suppose. I've just about given up.  If it doesn't want to work I just skip it.

I'm pretty frustrated with it. Had that on a list to learn this year, but have given up. Some seem to be doing quite well with it but I have limited computer abilities and although Rob S. has some info on it, his post is from 2009. Seems like they may have made some "improvements" there at "photo bucket central" that are beyond my reach.

I guess my computor skills are limited also I can not work it either.

yep I swore at it half the day sunday

[Interseptor]

Any alternative to photobicket?

[maineac]

I use  www.hunt101.com.   I find it easy and effective.

Why does this site require photobucket? I've had problems trying to post pictures here and gave up.
I have NO PROBLEM posting pictures on other sites.

Yesterday when I logged in it gave me the option to participate in their beta testing for the mew version of the site that will launch soon. I can only assume all the recent issues people are having are related to the upcoming transition.

I have used the new photobucket version, easier to download pics, but that is all I like about it! Reszing is tougher now as you can't just chose your size  as in the old version!  I may go back to the old version for now, as a user you have that choice!

I stopped using PhotoBucket a while ago. There really IS an easier way and it's right here on TradGang. Here is the link:

  http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=129;t=000004  

You can get on that thread and read your way down through it until you are ready to try it for yourself. You can even practice your photo upload procedure right there on that thread until you are confident enough to use it.      

Good Luck!

              What the hell it works sort of.

I've never had an issue with Photobucket.
If anyone is interested I have put together a Power Point presentation that I think can walk almost anyone through posting a picture using Photobucket. It is meant for those who are not so computer savvy, so if you are comfortable posting pictures and it is just the Photobucket web site that is messing up, then this won't be of much help.  I used my 11 year old daughter as my Guinea pig, sat her in front of the computer with the Power Point and told her to follow it, when she was done, she had posted a pic.
If you are interested, let me know and I'll email you a copy.

I think you have to choose what size your pics need to be before you upload them.  Which is for the birds, cause I may want to keep them full size for other applications.

It's not a matter of knowing how.  I've posted literally hundreds if pics without problems.  Something has changed.  Maybe IE updates don't like photobucket.  Or photobucket just hasn't kept up with software upgrades. (Most likely).   It worked in the past relatively well, although it has always been a cumbersome process.  Now it works sporadically.  Beyond me to figure out why.

Just trying it out!
