Photobucket changes
« on: July 04, 2017, 09:49:31 AM »
Now that they have chanced their policies and want more $$$

what is everyones plan for hosting pics?

Main problem, IMHO, that photo bucket solved was same pic on multiple forums.  VS downloading the same pics multiple times to each forum.

Flickr works better than photo bucket.

Edit: for me, Flickr works better than photo bucket

Using Photobucket has become EXTREMELY slow.  It is so full of ads that pages won't load.

I quit using photobucket a year or so ago due to how slow it was (I never paid to use it). I use tapatalk now to upload photos, and just permanently save photos to SD chips and an external hard drive at home

FLIKR is superior to the old bucket. Plus the free image hosting size is crazy! Definitely worth the swap. I quit using the bucket 5 years ago and have no complaints.

I spent quite a bit of time yesterday "downloading" my files from photo bucket.

It was a chore.  Once you open an album, there are some hot links on the right side.  One is download album, like it.  Then verify that you are human, at lease twice per album, and it will send you a link to download.  All this while navigating through all the add's.  Took 3 hours to do 30 folders, yeah, good thing it was raining.

I'll start a GATR group on Flickr. How about "GATR Rock Crawling Club"?

The bad thing about moving content is that all of your pictures that are posted on different forums will be gone.  If you care about that.
