Anyone else having trouble with photobucket?

yep. Doesn't want to resize photos, takes a long time, glitchy. But it IS free!

Brian I was just there and did not have any "big" problems. The only thing I noticed was that it was changing the file name of the files that I uploaded. Not hard to go back and fix just a pain in the rear.

getting it to upload pics is a pain...the uploader OLD OR NEW will not open up for me unless I sit for several minutes. That's likely because they want you to PAY for memberhsip.

Just a thought....y'all might have to update yer web browser.

I change the size, and cropping in Photoshop (7) and then I upload them to photo bucket, and put them on here, I did that yesterday, and I haven't had the troubles

Mine keeps opening up to Mobile Photobucket for some reason

I couldn't change the size either

Interesting comments.

I don't know what some of you guys are talking about, that PhotoBucket doesn't work or is hard to use.

I have an unlimited "pro account" with PhotoBucket and have never had a problem.

I just resigned up as a new "standard" free user. It works flawlessly and allows me to upload multiple images all at once, and I can EASILY edit any image down to 600 pixels wide super fast.

My browser of choice is Firefox, but I have NO problem loading and editing images with Explorer 7 or Opera 8 or Netscape 7.

YMMV, as it seems to be ...

I haven't had ANY problems with my account either. Works great.

no problems what so ever and i use Photobucket atleast 5 or 6 times a week. running smooth latly, i can help if anyone has any problems, i'm not great with computers but i know my way around Photobucket.

I dont have problems with photobucket once I can get the uploader to come up on screen- it just takes forever for that to happen.

doing other things on the web don't take any time at all...here, as an example...so I don't know what the problem is...I see someone said update your web browser...well, I would, if I knew how to do that.
