Photobucket is at it again.................cannot see pics somebody has posted on another forum, just get stuff from pb saying "upgrade your.........etc"
Difficult as I am on a public library computer!
FWIW, my photos are all in the cloud in Yandex.Disk but they are also on the computer as well, as you can download a desktop app, so no fear of losing them, also you're not then dependent on a wifi connection to see them. You can also add the app to other computers to view the same pictures. Syncing is fast and flawless.
For those who haven't heard of Yandex, it's the Russian equivalent of Google. I don't recommend their Mail, though. I tried it and found it wanting.
You get 10GB storage space with a free Yandex.Disk account, plus an additional 32GB if you agree to photos taken with your phone camera to be automatically uploaded to the cloud. As I scarcely use my phone camera, my preference being my slr or my compact, I am quite happy to have the KGB examining them in exchange for 42GB free!
I am told imgur is good.
Why bother closing a pb account?Stops PB emails about your account.
Unless I'm missing something, Photobucket hasn't removed or deleted anyones photos has it? It's basically just charging a fee (albeit a relatively hefty one) for the privilege of being able to use their (PB's) bandwidth to show the photos on sites such as this one.
Anyone who's chosen to store their photos on PB still can, can't they?
I've just received "The Email" from PhotoBucket... for the ONE photo that I have stored on there.
I'm going to be awake all night worrying about it, that's for sure ::)
switched to Smugmug. Smugmug isn't free, but the cost is a small fraction of what Photobucket is demanding,
