Hi guys,

I'm trying to upload photos of my deer hunt and every time I go to upload into Photobucket, it kicks me out and asks me to login again. I login and go to upload and it kicks me out again. This has been happening for a few days and I don't know what to do.

Please help me if you can.

Thanks,

Slooshark1
 
I used to use Photobucket.... but now switched to Imgur. PB is a BRUTALLY designed website, and it's down more than it's up. I've had nothing but problems with it for years.

Imgur is much easier to use from desktop AND mobile.
 
I have used PhotoBucket for years, basically trouble free. Lately there seemed a lot more trouble, especially with ads always coming up.
So about three days ago I broke down and paid a fee to go ad free for a year.
Next time I tried to get in, it acted exactly like Slooshark1 has described!
It is still acting exactly the same. It lets me to my library, but in a different format than usual, but when I click download, I'm booted out.
I have finally, I hope, submitted a report to someone.
Hope that does it.
 
Photobucket has always been a PITA for me, and it's been so much worse than usual lately that I broke down and started with Imgur. Sure enough, as soon as I did, Photobucket immediately started working properly for me again. So now I have two image hosting sites, hopefully at least one will always be functioning when I want to post an EE ad. :)

For those in the know: does Imgur allow you to upload photos on your phone? I assumed that it would (even Photobucket does this when it feels like being useful...) but when I go to the Imgur site on my phone I don't see how to upload. I can view my own pics, as well as all the other crap on there, but I can't seem to upload the pics taken with my phone.

Hit the cloud top right, close the pop up for the app, bobs your uncle
 
I recently switched to imgur.

PhotoBucket is just PAINFULLY slow for me (On multiple PCs and my Xperia Z5 smartphone). All of the ads are annoying, but the load times on the pages are just ridiculous. It seems to function OK, but just OMG slow.

You need to use the Imgur app. Upload directly from your phone photo gallery.
 
Thanks, gents, I figured there had to be a way. If I can upload directly from my phone with Imgur, then it will be so nice to kiss Photobucket goodbye forever. :)

Yep something on that site causes huge memory consumption now and bogs entire pc down, Chrome goes from 288mb ram in use to nearly 2gbs in matter of seconds......total BS.

Imgur for the win now.
 
Can anyone tell me how to import photos from imgur? I opened an account and uploaded a couple of photos but how do I get them on to CGN now?
 
If you are on a smart device.
Click three bars at top left.
Select images or album.
Select your pic.
