I'm not paying to be able to post pics here and on other forums. So all I can do is start using something else.
I just gave Flickr a shot but could not get it to do anything other than post a link (all on mobile). The pic would never display.
Any suggestions?
Trying to figure that out. Flickr works good from a computer.

I hear DP's favorite place to see pics is Facebook
I don't like Flickr mobile. Imgur works but it's a bit of a different format. It's not so much a place to store your pics as it is a "hey look at this, world" sharing sort of thing.
I'm looking into Google photos...
If you can figure out a way to use google photos on a mobile device, give us the skinny.

I can't figure out how to do it from mobile either.....but then I never knew how with p bucket or anything else. Easier to do it from the desktop [coffee]
PB was cake with the app. I never saw an ad once.
I also never *ever* went there on a PC. They hung around VS too long. Ad-pocalypse.

I liked the PB mobile app also. Very easy to take a shot or vid with the phone, upload it to PB and copy link to DMF!
Where to from here, I dunno!!
To infinity and beyond?
I haven't found anything yet that compares to how user friendly the pee bucket app was. There's gotta be some big brained dudes out there that are gonna come up with a better option.
Thanks Buzz! 😆
I hope so too kopf! There's a rather large opening for that at present!
I put my photo on facebook, post it here. You can hide the photo or video from view on facebook if you just want to show it here.
Works for me.

interested as well
Any idea if we can bulk swap our pics to who ever ? ..looked around in PB but don't seem to see that option
They'll probably make it as painful as possible to leave, so many will say 'to heck with it' and stump up the cash for the upgrade!

How to download the photos from the photobucket.
1. Find the album you want to download by first navigating to the Library.
2.Select the Album you wish to download.
3.Look in the lower right corner of the page for "Album Action" and find the link to Download Album.
4.Validate that you are a human by sliding the arrow.
Ok thanks for that
So a consensus of where to go ?? ..not real keen on facebook

I will try imgbox for now. ( I just uploaded these two images.)
I've been using Imgur for a few weeks now, seems to work well from my desktop. I don't do mobile. It is geared to the 'hey, look at me' crowd, but you can haul arse and bypass all that pretty easily. Lightyears faster than PissBucket with no ads.
Tried to use imgur. It says they're over capacity. :D
Ok, got part of it figured out, but still no joy. [bang]

Was just on PB desktop site and tried to down load whole albums.
Nothing happens. It just says, "hmm, something went wrong. Try again?"
You mean, tried to download all the albums at the same time?
If so, I would suggest trying to download albums one by one.

No, one by one. I opened up an album listed under the "library" area and went to download album.
I clicked the capcha thing to prove i was a human, the down load button lit up, I click, then I get the error.
So far I have had this result with FireFox and Chrome running under Win7 and Chrome under Linux Mint 18.1
I get the same result >:(
yup me too [bang] [bang] [bang]
I will add that I was able to dl a single photo, so all isn't total lost.
Sucky, but not lost at least.
The bastards finally caught up with me. >:(
When I think about how many pics I've posted, here and on other forums over the last dozen or so years, I get hacked off to the max.
Mongrels!
Tried again to download an album and couldn't. I emailed in to photobucket and this is what they sent back -
Photobucket Team (Photobucket Support)

Hello,
Thank you for emailing us. There is a known issue with the album download feature and our team is currently looking into it.
In the meantime, you can still download your images with the following steps:
Step 1. Login to your Photobucket Account
Step 2. Navigate to your library page
Step 3. View a photo and click the download button
Step 4. The picture will be saved to your computer
Thank you for your patience at this time.
Best,
Photobucket Team@Photobucket Support
Anyone find a good solution for posting from a mobile device yet? I have all my pictures saved elsewhere, so I don't need to move anything from Photomake the beast with two backset.

I can't figure Imgur out on the iPad either. But I'm dumber than a bag of hammers.

I use flickr from a lappy or desktop.
I'd be a lot happier with it if they stopped dicking around with the look and layout and procedures every year.
I tried to use it on my android phone, but it won't work here (or I can't make it work).
I'll give Flickr a good go. Just gotta set up the right privacy level and learn to post pics here. Pussbucket was easy that way.
Ok, I can post image links but not direct pics via Flickr. It's a step forward I guess.
Click on the image you would like to post here,
Click on “share photoâ€, which is located lower right corner.
Click on “BBcode†and copy it, then, select size.
Come back to the forum, paste what you just copied.
Delete the part before img] and after [/img
Then, post it.
Thanks. I'm trying to do this but missing a little detail somewhere. I'll have to check over my process.

I get only the one line to copy - nothing "BBcode" or similar.
The first "x" is that line within our "insert image" - the other is the same line, just pasted.

That was my experience with Flickr mobile as well. Not that user friendly.

Well, if you're mobile you can take a photo on Flickr, tap the share icon, select copy url
Head to tools.rackonly.com, scroll down to bbcode, paste, tap get code.
Paste here, picture!!

... as if posting photos wasn't demanding enough already :( I'm not using my phone for this, but it might be the same procedure on a pc.
From all the old "help" forum posts on flickr I see no chance to share anything other than cold links (back to flickr). Charge me $10/year, but 'sharing' my photos on a forum with just a link isn't really helpful to other members.
Does anyone get a BBcode on their flickr? (as in the video)
Photobucket had it going on for iPad etc users. Nothing else out there compares. I'm guessing they knew that, but I'm not gonna pay the fee to use it.

Change your "viewing privacy" setting to "public".
You set it to "private". That's why you are not seeing sharing feature.

Did you download it to your own flickr or did you click BBcode share in/from my album?
I still don't see a BBcode option.
Go to the link you just posted.
Look at the lower right corner of black back ground.
You should see four icons.
Move the cursor over the "share photo" icon which is 2nd from the left, right next to the ☆.
(https://i1.wp.com/en.support.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/flickr-photo-link.png)
You should see BB code there.
On my pc I click on the share 'arrow' and get a box with two options - one 'share' and one 'email' plus the FB, twitter a.s.o. - no BBcode. I tried Firefox as well as my usual IE.
Ha - the BBcode shows when I access my picture through 'photostream' instead of album/camera roll.

Agreed! ðŸ'ðŸ»
All those broken links! Sigh. ðŸ˜"
I imagine they will roll back the policy or go under. I only ever used photobucket for forums. I doubt anyone will pay. [thumbsdown]
If I mark an album as family or friend, would it still show up here if I posted a pic from it?

I just started with imgur... nice, simple interface.
Might try it. I need easy.

You need the img and /img tags book ending the link
Quote from: GK on August 08, 2017, 04:15:03 AM
Can I achieve that on my iPhone? If so, I'm having trouble!!
The image tag button is on the forum. Look above the smileys.
Bottom row...second from the left...or you can manually type them in. (http://before%20the%20link) after.
Did anyone notice this in Imgur's TOS?

Surely they'll catch on to that soon
But, awesome
Just wondering .... is Photobucket getting nervous ..? I get mail offers from them every day now, more or less.
Don´t care, really, since I´ve ditched them quite a while ago, but ll those mails are getting slightly irritating [bang]
I’m getting them as well. Irritate em back, works for me. ;)
Me too!
They’re offering me a $99 deal for what they previously asked $400 for.
They can still go jump!
Persnally, I hope they go under.
The beginning of the end?
This seems a little desperate, I think. Or it's the beginning of prices landing where millions of hobby users can accept...
Introducing the Forever Plan, which includes all of the premium features of the Expert Plan, but at Beginner Plan pricing of $4.03 per month.
If this isn’t reason enough to purchase, here’s one more -
THE PRICE OF THE FOREVER PLAN WILL NEVER INCREASE.
This offer is like getting over 6 months of our best plan for FREE EVERY YEAR!
Act before midnight on November 30, 2018
because while the plan is Forever,
the offer is not.
I get these emails too. Unless they drop the price to free and include an apology letter they are dead to me.
