Photobucket, from good to rubbish in one upgrade!

[Jon.M]

I've got all my online photos on photobucket although unlike some people they're only resized shots for posting in forums.

Like Garry I tried the upgrade and gave my opinion of it before returning to the old site but there's only a few days left before the change gets forced on me.

It looks like they don't want to be online photo storage and backup any more but want to be a social networking site.

I've never used them as online storage and would never use anything for that

All my pics are on storage here and those are just uploaded for posting.

Thanks for the replies. I think I will look for an alternative.
BTW when I said Photo Store I mean somewhere to place my pictures to display on the internet.
My photo store is backed up at home across 2 PC's and 2 external drives!

Photobucket are running an online survey. Login to your account to complete it. Probably needs pop ups enabled as it opens in a new window.
I bet mine makes interesting reading!

Have a look at http://postimage.org/

I have been using it for a while now, and it does most of what I want...a slideshow facility would be nice, but it's free, so I'm not complaining.
