    I have complained about that & asked their mods to split my main album into manageable chunks, takes half an hour to scroll down it now.

    They've not responded though.

    Looks like the 'new improved version' now loads as default, the 'browse files' doesn't work, nor does 'switch back to the original Photobucket' nor can I see a way to log out.

    What a shambles!

    Time perhaps to ditch pb, any suggestions (and preferably not one that uses loads of uppercase characters in the image links which prevents posting on forums that have an upper case character (shouting) limit?

    I never had trouble using PB but gave up using it when GC went to the new format as I can now upload them directly from my computer. It's much quicker :dbgrtmb: but only allows six photos per post.

    But have you been able to change back to the old version today? (I haven't)

    I've previously been opting for the old version, but from today that option is not working for me, so I'd like to hear if it's working for anybody else.

    The new version is working OK for me (didn't realise you could switch to the old format), although I'm not keen on the new layout, it takes a few more clicks to navigate than it used to do.

    Just tried the "switch back to previous version" and it works OK for me, only had a cursory glance though.

        I've just tried Photobucket now, and last time I was still on the old format, and got a new style page where I had to enter my user name and password. Did that......and got the old style page asking me to enter my user name and password again. In between this I kept getting pages for Talk Talk and Face Book:dunno: On the second submission of user name and password I got the old style format of libraries. I had tried the new format a couple of weeks ago but couldn't transfer images using the Direct Link method [it just sat there and did nothing] so I went back to the old format and stayed on it. At least with the old format I can transfer up to 20 images in one post if I want.:coffee:
