    Anyone else having problems with P-B?
    I keep losing posted pictures which are still in there and the site is very slow recently. I can't even open pages to view old shots.

    Try Image Shack.

    Rarely a problem. I've 500 images on there.
    Instant access.

    Hiya Pal. I've 1000 photos on my first PB account and over 3500 on the current one and no problems whatsoever.

    It's only slow with me if our line is slow going.

    How many photos do you hold in your account? Do you make files / folders which I think is essential?

    Will be answering your post soon so we can talk there if necessary. xx

    Hi ya Pal, I use photo & Imageshack, no wat is Imageshack too smal......................................!!!!!!! :cnfs:

    I have discovered with PB, that as long as you keep creating different Albums there is no problem.... It moves soothly & quickly..... If you put all of your photos on PB in just a couple of albums you do run into slow pages turning & finding old pics is difficult.... !!!

    I have 18 different albums on my original PB account now Pal & I can access any photo in secs no matter how old.... I think you need to create more albums..... Log out of PB....

    Then......

    Run your anti-Spyware prog... That will clear your cookies..... I have Spybot software or you may have a like software prog .. Whatever clear your cookies... Then go to photo bucket.. Open your account & log in again & hopefully you will be alright....

    Then as you add photos create different albums for each category..... :wink: Hopefully that will sort you out.... :wink::luv:

    No problems here with PB Nick. As Marley suggests splitting photos into folders may help.

    Must be your machine, I have just uploaded Novembers pictures to PB with no trouble, even when our Dialup speed is not good for some reason.
    Only time I have had trouble is when I must have Ad-blocked something from the site and found I could not send more than one image at a time and could not use the bulk uploader at all. Agree I do not like ImageShack and swapped from there many years ago to PB.

    It could be the internet connection being slow if you're accessing it at peak times, or it might be if the site is really busy at one particular time.

    Use TinyPic. You don't need to keep an online album. With PB if you move or delete an image, you leave red crosses all over the place!

    Not so sure Tinypic is still available to new sign ups Jo, that is why I have moved to ImagShack for my extra pics...!!! Jo & Nick.. Image Shack is free to ~& has all the gizmos just the same.... :wink:
