What the heck??

[olde_fashioned]

Can someone please tell me what the heck happened to Photobucket?! I go to log in and it's all freaky and cheap looking! And why does it say "Mobile Photobucket"???

It's also only displaying thumbnails on my albums which is really very annoying when all my icons are tiny to begin with.

I HATE it when people keep changing their sites. It's friggin' confusing...

There's a good reason I just subscribe to smugmug. Any time there is a site change, it's always an improvement. :-)

I really don't even want to think about moving (I have 94759347 million things uploaded--I had to get 2 accounts), but ugh, it's so frustrating!!! I can't find a way to view all the images in my albums, and in order to get the URLs for coding, you have to click on each image individually, click on the "get URLs" link, and THEN right-click and copy the URL manually. *fumes*

I do know that smugmug is able to transfer photos from other acconts. I'm not sure if that is one of them, but it could be worth checking!

That's really weird though.

They've fixed it now--I wonder if it was because when I was on they weren't done installing the new features, OR, they had such a backlash that they reverted a few things, ha ha. Either way it seems to be working now, thank goodness!

That's good to hear. It's too bad they don't inform their users when they're doing updates or fixing or changing things, though!

yes, the new photobucket is ridiculously stupid. but then, so is the new facebook, which has absolutely NO WAY to display things such as flair on the profile (what is the point of flair if no one can see it??), windows 7 which just took windows xp and made it stupider and harder to use, and my new cell phone, which does not allow you to have the clock on the front display when the phone's closed (what's the point of having a front display, then????). Bottom line, technology/user interface creators are a bunch of weenies and I want to smack them all and make them fix their products.

And you can't put that sidebar message/bio thingie on your FB profile anymore, either!! SO annoying!!

Well my cell thankfully has a front clock, LOL, otherwise I'd never know what time it was!! ;P

Photobucket is taking a leaf out of facebook's book by changing after every moment. It took me 21 minutes jsut to find how to up load form the web!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

I know, same here. Grrr...

[ladyneferankh.livejournal.com]

Actually I'm finding it impossible to move in at all right now :O !

[ladyneferankh.livejournal.com]

hang on wait--I think I figured it out--I had to click on this thing on the bottom that says "non-mobile" photobucket.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

They fixed it--it was not allowing me to do that when I posted this entry.

Thank you your help!!!!!

Just go to Photobucket for your old stuff, and put new stuff on Flickr! :D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Hahah, does Flickr have unlimited space?

[nathan cunningham (from livejournal.com)]

300 MB worth of photos per month (your limit will reset on the first of each new month--I hardly even put a dent into it).
