Default photobucket

OK, I've given up on them. If I can ever get back in my account for more than 30 seconds, I'm going to delete everything in my library. I cant get it to upload anything, it kicks me out and takes forever to reload. It times itself out before it can load all its adds. Whats the best photo hosting site going now?

Dang Spare... not sure what the problem is . I have no problems at all with Photobucket, other than the fact that they have gotten way to commercial.. ads all over the place popping up etc. But I have no time out problems or anything like you're mentioning. Have you tried making a new account... different name, etc?.

X2!
For some reason my iPad loads and responds better than my computer(s).
I'm on my third computer since these problems started and they haven't resolved these problems. The iPad is usable but most people will need blood pressure medicine to complete a download and copy/paste the photo link.

Who has paid for photobucket to remove the ads?
My wife has made this suggestion just to keep from replacing keyboards and mouses.

Does this help?

It only took 18 minutes to upload and copy/paste this photo/link from my iPad.

Talking

LOL Tsubaki.... remind me not to offer to fix any of your computer equipment.
Took me less than 5 minutes (I timed it) to log in, find a suitable photo from my album for you guys and post it here. And yes, the ads are still a PITA. If I used the site all the time I think I might invest the $15 a year to make them go away, but the only time I use it is to post photos here, so I'll put up with the ads. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate, using Google Chrome as my brouser, running on a AMD 8 core CPU, 2 nVidia 760 vid cards running in SLI mode, with a 1 TB hard drive and 32 gigs of ram. Typical gamers computer, nothing special.
