wombatie Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 How many of you use Photobucket? Is it always so slow and tedious? Decided that I would use it for my personal photos but after half an hour I was too busy screaming at it as it would only upload one photo at a time very slowly. I only managed to get 2 on there before I quit. Any info would help. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonR Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I found it to be very slow and twitchy. Also it is full of advertisements and seems to crash a lot. I hated it and never go there if someone posts a link. Don R Scrolling Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Been using it for years and am now looking for better. It is slow and cumbersome. Gets worse every time they "improve " it. Any suggestions on what is better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clayton717 Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I had the same problems. I used it for my albs for completed projects and it was difficult for other to find. So I stopped using it and not use Facebook for my crafts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old camera that decided to die on Christmas Eve is a Nikon and the new one I intend to buy for when we go away is a Nikon so I guess Nikon Image Space is my best bet. I have only one question and I know you are going to laugh at me but vaguely about how many photos is 20gb. I know it depends on the size of the photo but just a rough amount is fine.

Marg Thousands Marg and that's without reducing the size but you can reduced them on site. Forgot to say that's 20,000 megabits and if your picture is 1meg that's 20,000 photos get the idea not saying your picture will be 1 meg Edited January 29, 2016 by Phantom Scroller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkey Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 I didn't like photobucket. I have been using shutterfly for years and never had a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 The thing I like about Photobucket is the ability to copy your image address, put it here and the image will show up here in the post. Can you do that with other sites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
