Are people trying to use PhotoBucket again?

[DaveTN]

I’m seeing a lot of the photos posted recently, that I think are new, with a big azz PhotoBucket Watermark through them. Whats up?

I've seen numerous pics posted on various forums with the PB watermark lately, they must have gotten the message about their decision to not allow pics to be posted on forums.  I don;t use 'em anymore, but I don't post many pics either.

It seems that Photobucket is trying to force us into paying for their use now. I just learned that we can post pictures directly into the forum so I'm doing that from now on.

I still maintain imgur is the best way to post pics.

Photobucket broke the internet a long time ago. Imgur.com is the latest new "go to" thing. I think uploading directly to the forum has issues.

The picture in that thread isn't in PhotoBucket; its at Amazon.

I was referring to a copy and paste into the thread from my computer; not Photobucket. I have no idea where you're getting Amazon at.

Correct. I would guess you uploaded the picture from your computer to the forum and the forum is using Amazon for storage. I just remember people having a lot of trouble and David posting something about limited photo storage and you should use a third party provider. But that’s been awhile maybe that has all changed.
