Does anyone here use Photobucket? I just signed up with my first ever account today and I love it! I also took my very first screenshot as well, even though I cheated and used the snipping tool that's available for Windows 7 lol. I wanted to take advantage of Forum Promotions banner ads service, but haven't been able to for several reasons:



1. I did not have a pic saving site.

2. I did not understand how to do screen shots.



I'm so excited. The only advertisement service I can't take advantage of yet is the Featured Forum service (Didn't Forum Advertiser have something like this?) I can't use that yet because the price of using the service is too high for me at the moment, but I am pleased to be able to use the Banner Ads finally.
 
Photobucket is great! I use it and tinypic most of all (tinypic is owned by photobucket)..

The only downside to photobucket is that you have to log into it at least once every 90 days or the images you posted up will be replaced with an error image saying Inactive Account

I think its stupid. Probably just a ploy to get people to upgrade to their pro accounts.

Despite that I still love it and I log into my account a few times a week so I have nothing to worry about.

That is pretty stupid. I'm sure I'll probably be using it quite often. Especially for screenshots and stuff like that.



Tiny pic doesn't have that 90 day of inactivity thing, do they? What's the link to tiny pic, because that's what I wanted to try, but I can't remember the url for it.
 
No tinypic doesnt but for some reason images uploaded to tinypic are blocked by most school / work filters.
 
I use Photobucket, and have done for years, i've never had a problem with the site, i've got hundreds of pictures saved there.

I don't go on the computer at work anyways, so I'm not worried about that one.
 
Started using it when I first started using invisionfree, back in the old days of HH.



Still use it now. I dont have any kind of photo tools on my new computer, so I use the ones on photobucket.
 
I have a Photobucket account but haven't uploaded anything to it in years. I use TinyPic and wImg
 
I used photobucket, but I'm about to consider tinypic, because PB is starting to get too advertisey. They delay uploading time so 15 seconds of their advertisement time can be played. Maybe I'm wrong, but at least last night it was taking over 15 seconds to upload one picture.
 
I despise PhotoBucket with a passion, always have, TinyPic and ImageShack are my two true loves.



Fun Fact: Four Years ago, I was partial owner of a website, rather popular, but due to the usage of Photo Bucket after a certain amount of days that my partner hadn't gotten on Photo Bucket all of the images for the skin,banner, and so on were deleted.
 
I like it when people dont password potect their photobucket account.. Then I can go see everything they have stored in there.
