Hi,
Recently noticed that alot of members here are having issues with photo bucket. I'm assuming its down to photo bucket, but alot of images have been posted along with HTML code. This is causing problems on posts. Scrolling page layouts and images that don't display correctly.
Soloution
Say goodbye to Photobucket...Get Picasa web albums. Its free and is the so easy to upload, share and edit images. If everyone does decide to use this option. Then I will post instructions, for beginners.
https://picasaweb.google.com/m/viewer?fgl=true&pli=1
Let me know your verdict, folks! |

| photobucket doesnt give the html codes to make the images clickable, the html codes that have been seen recently are down to the users trying to make their images clickable. |

No gmac, that's not it - for years I have just been clicking the 'forum image' link on PB then paste it into posts - all of a sudden the other day loads of us found that doing the same 'copy and paste' now includes the extra code - I deleted the extra code before I posted, and went back assuming they had moved round the links and I was now clicking the wrong one. It's definitely PB which has changed - they are including the extra code now when you copy the link  |

ah yes i see they have added the bloody clickable link nonsense.
Ok so we have 2 options, the easiest being remove the first part of the code from [url=http .............html] and also removing the last [/url]
2nd option is to add the " marks as I have done, this is old coding on this forum so the code from photobucket wont work, it will only work if you add the quote mark before http:/...... and after .html"] |

| I agree with Smart bunny. When i posted pictures the other day i usually copy the IMG code on PB but it also comes up with the URL code now as well for some reason |

they must be getting ready to add all sorts of adverts to their pages now so that when you click a photo you will get all sorts of weird adverts on the page,
I use facebook for adding photos in here.
must admit I had wondered why i was having to mess with photos in here lol, |

| It's an annoyance for me at best as I simply have to remember to delete the extra code - but a lot of new people have trouble just posting pics on here, without having to explain which bit to delete as well! It used to be a simple case of hover over the image and click the right link... now you have to hover over the pic until the settings symbol shows up, click the setting symbol, click the link, delete the code... arrrgh!!!! |

I just have problems full stop 
FB for some reason wont let me upload photos - have had issues for weeks now, so have just stopped trying.
If I try to use dropbox I get stuff I don't want showing - probably just me being very computer illiterate due to my age. |

Sue, I don't have any problems with Dropbox and it's not age that's the problem.  It will depend on whether you share the link of an enclosing folder and make it public. Set up sub folders and only copy the link to individual photos or movies and that is all that will show.
I have individual folders for the different forums and FB. I also have shared common folders for exchanging 'work' files. These only show up on my Desktop and the person I'm working with. |

Thanks, will give it a go at some point.
Ok so if I can't blame my age will just have to pretend I have some unknown condition which prevents me from 'understanding' computers and technical stuff

Has anyone had a picture missing from their Library on photobucket? 2 of mine had gone, and in the slow worm thread, first picture suddenly doesn't show ( it did before ), though it's still on photobucket.
I also notice, that if I don't go on photobucket for a while, my settings changed from " private " to "public"! |

Goodbye Photobucket IMO. More hassle than its worth. Either people will be removing HTML tags or admins/mods will be running through all posts removing them.
I suggest Picasa web albums or Facebook or just ignore me lol |
