Photobucket woes

[gb6491]

Test didn't work.

OK JohnR, how to post a pic from Postimage?

I just tried it and found when you first upload the image you'll get some links to copy.
Here's using the "Hotlink for forums" link:

..and one using the "Direct link" and adding BB code [img]paste direct link here[/img] when posting here:

If you go past that first page, just click the share button at the top and the links will appear.
I like what I see there so far, so I'm sending some "Thank you very much" your way and to JohnR
Regards,
Greg

I may have posted this before, I had trouble with Photo Bucket with pop-ups/snail speed for years...until I paid the $15 membership ransom.
Once paid, no more problems,

Thanks gb6491, that did it.

Goodbye Photobucket.

PB Sucks and has sucked for quite a while!

I've never used PB, nor any other photo storage service. Never felt a need to. Mostly, off computer C: drive storage resides on a spare, USB plug-in SSD.

Photobucket Blows

The bombarding of popup advertisements made the service painful to use.
But it was free.
So I took that as the price of admission.
Much like my free Yahoo Email account.
But there's no way in hell I'm paying for a photo hosting service.
Just deleted all my photos and submitted an account deletion request.
FU Photobucket

Same here Barth. As far as I'm concerned, they don't exist anymore.

More out of PB

I don't understand what's going on. I posted the above pics directl from my PB account which shows me loged in.

But ! Please excuse the link to another forum, I belong to m1911. org forum and now that one looks like an rss feed, I think. And all my pics there are blocked out and it says I need to update. So when I go to PB it wants me to chose a payment plan. But not when I posted the above pics here

Oh! Now I see some of the pics I posted here are gone but not all.

Hope this comes out, from Imur

Test from Postimage "hotlink for forums"


"Direct link" with bbcode
I think it worked. Thanks all, especially Greg who, if this works, made it easy even for me.

Testing a PB fix

I'd like to know if anyone can see this pic. The fix I found can let me see old PB pics, but I don't know it allows me to ost a PB picso others can see it

I'm seeing the obnoxious "Please update your account to enable 3rd party hosting" place holder that has broken many excellent tutorials on the web.

Oh well ! It's a half a&& fix from a Firefox add-on. I can see what I posted plus all other restricted pics from others. I also trying Postimage.org but it's a pain transferring pics from PB one at a time
