Alternatives to Photobucket
« on: January 29, 2015, 06:03:13 AM »
I swear down if photobucket was a thing in front of me I would throw it out of the window.

Why is it so difficult to add a title to a photo that you have uploaded and then get a working link for said photo. Why does adding a title to a photo mean that the url has to change?! Seriously Photobucket me and you are over!!!!  :enraged:

my photos automatically back up to my Google account, so I get the URL from there. I can't stand photobucket either.

Flikr for me! Photobucket has ads that slow it down. I can't even link images like I used to.

Imgur.com is free and beautifully simple to use. I highly recommend it.

I signed up to photobucket about a year or so back, as it seemed like the thing everyone used. I hated it within 5 minutes. And worse, the moment I signed up my email got inundated with spam like it never had before??!!

I definitely think the two were connected. I deleted my photobucket account after just a few days and coincidentally, the truckloads of spam stopped too.

I had used flickr prior to that and still use it now. I'm a techo dunce, so don't really know about any others.

I use Flickr.  It's not "BEST THING EVER" or anything, but it does the job.

I've just given up adding the titles for now.

Unfortunately I have over 500 photos in my MLP sales album alone, not to mention pictures of MrD that I don't have copies of etc. So it'll take some time to migrate away.

The ads are so bad on photobucket that I now skip any sales posts here that link me there. It's really gotten horrible lately.  :mad:
