photobucket problems

Post by Gary Turman » Sun Aug 06, 2017 7:33 am

Every time I log onto photobucket it totally stops my pc with the amount of advertisement popups. It's gotten to where I can't even use it. Is anybody else having this problem or is it my pc?

they changed there hosting rules that all i know. to share your photos you need to pay get this 399 a year to host your photos to forums like this one. Yes their ads are crazy. but since the change thousands of photos here are now useless to us all. my entire thread on my GPW is useless.

Many other forums I belong to don't permit third party photo hosting...now you understand why!

Frankly, I don't understand why you guys just don't upload your photos directly to this site? That way, the photos will always be around. To each his own they say.....
