#1 Photobucket.

Post by pre65 »

I must be getting at least 3 Emails a week from Photobucket telling me my account is over the usage limit, and that's been going on for a long time.

Going on blurred images on all manner of forums it seems no one wants to pay up.

Anyone here paid them anything ?

No since they blocked my photos I haven’t uploaded any.

I pay - £5 a month as I have thousands of images and all the ones that people tell you to move to, they eventually stop being free or impose issues etc.
Since paying I have no issues.

Can you create an email rule to automatically block and delete that?

Probably, if I was clever enough.

On the Gas fitters private forum they host our pictures. I’ve found that I can link that here and you can view them. But I need plenty of pictures of boiler parts etc so I can’t post too many pictures.

Ive just tried the one someone linked to above and it’s working. But it’s thumnails, which Im not used to. But its free and its working. Nthing to moan about any more, go back to hetaing up the big frying pan for the bigger fish this worry about photobucket has made me neglect.
