Title: photobucket
Post by: Darren Henry on December 27, 2010, 08:37:33 am
Has anyone else had "issues" with photo bucket lately? I just tried to log on there and the screen was all in itty bitty type. My pictures were smaller than postage stamps and you can forget reading the text. there were 13 pictures per row, to give you an idea how small they were.

I often have problems with photobucket, just not those problems. I often can't get the page to load. And I find navigating the site baffeling. The new site layout doesn't seem an improvement to me. Maybe thats the problem? The upgrade changed your settings or something? I remember playing around with settings one day and seem to recall an option to display a certain number of pictures per page?

That or the reading glasses.

Everybody really seems to complain about the ads on photobucket. I don't really see too many, is it because I have a mac? And does anybody pay for it? Does it get better if you do?

hi

they don't bother me but i know some people have issues.
If photobucket didn't make ad money they wouldn't host for free.

It's been working fine for me this week .

Exactly rich The the edit adds are new  but the thumbnails opening with AT&T the adds takes more time. You can eliminate the Cade from =to ? I hink it is June told me but I can only remember the. Ode if I'm looking at it. You can also just use the direct URL. They just started somthing f new if tou have the I phone photobucket app there is a vedio add before it opens.   Maybe if tou pay it's gone ?

try this

if you copy thr code marked IMG code and paste it here it looks like this

(URL=http://s120.photobucket.com/albums/o194/fragged8/?action=view&current=BiteMe.jpg](IMG]http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o194/fragged8/th_BiteMe.jpg[/IMG)[/URL)

I changed the first and last square brackets for ordinary brackets so the code would be displayed.

cut out the code from the start to the .jpg] so it looks like this, remember the start and end brackets
should be square brackets but the puter won't display the code here if they are, it will display the
thumbnail.

(IMG]http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o194/fragged8/th_BiteMe.jpg[/IMG)[/URL)

Now just cut off the last [/URL] AND the th_ in front of the file name.

you now have a thumb that will go full size when you right click and select View Image

it sounds long winded but pretty quick when you've done a couple.

Or, just remove this...

and it's a clickable thumb with no banner ads at all.

I don't have issues posting. The problem was that the text and thumbs were so small no one could read them. It took a bit of research but discovered that if one holds the "control" key the "+" and '-" keys will change the font size on photobucket.

Only one problem....your thumb wasn't clickable.  ???

Looks like June had the short answer, if I can remember it.  Course, if I leave it alone, it sends 'em to my account where they can see other pictures in the album. ;D

How so Mike? When I click on 'bite me' I just get a new window with a big picture. No way to see any other pictures. How do you do it?

And is it really that bad to click on the thumbs normally? I have a mac and don't get any popup ads or anything when I click. Just the normal banner ads on the PB page. I don't really enjoy the whole HTML thing, cut and paste is as fancy as I get. But if it's as bad as Bobbin makes it out to be maybe I'd do it. Maybe.

Must be your mac peppy  for most of us it take forever for the whole page to download with rhe adds just the pic Junes way is real fast as it's only the pix.
If you go to thbost album in the address bR you can see the rest of the album no place to click a HTML thing.  Of course youncant do it if it's a private album.
