Truoble with Photobucket!
It would appear that Photobucket just changed their entire format so that now I have NO idea how to post pics on FHF! Anyone else having trouble with this? Of course Photobucket is telling me nothing. Grrrrr.....
Re: Truoble with Photobucket!
The new format is a pain in the butt...
You have to click on the picture and on the right hand side it should say "Image link". I generally use the IMG Code link for pictures.

Click the desired photo, then click and copy the image code.

Re: Truoble with Photobucket!
After a while, Photobucket refused to let me revert to the old format. I hate the new format. I recently went to Flickr. I am a long ways from having Flickr figured out, but the quality of the pictures seems to be much better. I'm never going back to Photobucket. It used to freeze up all the time on me, which was a pain.

Re: Truoble with Photobucket!
Well sure enough... Upon closer examination I see there was an option to switch back to the old format (in barely visible letters way up in the corner) Thanks!

Re: Truoble with Photobucket!
Seriously consider switching to Flickr... The compression algorithms they use are much better than the ones at Photobucket (i.e., your photos on Photobucket will look like crap, see this example if you don't believe me), and when you upload your shots to Photobucket you are also giving them the rights to your images, meaning they can use your photos however they want without paying you royalties. It's all in their TOU. When you upload to Flickr, you retain the exclusive rights to your photos.

Natalie,
Interesting. I had no idea of this. You brought two significant points to light here. I think I will put Photobucket on my 'bucket list' of things to dump in 2012.
RocK ON!

Not as intuitive as Photobucket at first, but you get used to it really quick.
