Jeff, I just happened to try to upload photos to put on a post and got totally frustrated and gave up. First it let me in, then while I was in did not let me do anything and kicked me out then went through 3 password changes while messing with all the pop up ads, etc. I see what you mean and feel your pain.

Not only that, but there is some kind of crap on there that swamps my 'pooter' - slowing it down and even stopping me from doing anything. I use the "insert image" on the (Registry's) menu bar much as possible and avoid PB .

Using it from a mobile platform is even more maddening.

I agree with all, its such a slow site. So slow.

The Registry app is wonderful too for adding photos to posts with one click.

I use PhotoBucket for all my Road Trip Logs. I have thousands of pictures that they host. I also got frustrated with the slow, bloated performance. So my solution was to become a Photo Bucket subscriber. As a paying user, the performance is much better.

I used to use Picasaweb albums, then google screwed that up as I cannot get links to pictures in google photo as easy

Last time I checked there were close to 2,500 photos in my subscription. I have noticed slowness from time to time and changes in capabilities. There help guys/gals are great if I have difficulty with new or even old features.

I did change name of some photo albums in photobucket library and lost all photos in my stickies......found that changing name back to originals brought the photos back......wew

The links for photos depend on album title and will revert to library album title assigned. Do not change Album titles once photos are linked. That is reversable I have found.

Photobucket does have photos duplicated and organized by dates and I am not sure how that works......guess I have to enable photobucket backup. Backing up now.
