Hi
As im a member of a few forums, i use photobucket as a photo hosting site. i upload my photos to photobucket then link them to the relivant threads.
Once you have a thread online, if you delete the photo from the hosting site will it disapear from the thread ? (or does the site cache a copy of it?)
What about if you move the photo to a different folder within the hosting site...will it dispaear on the thread as the address may now be different?
Of course having your photos backed up online is never a bad idea but i personally find photobucket a bit....well.....crap. :rolleyes . its easy to upload, and really easy to link/copy addresses BUT....overall the site is really slow and i cant seem to find a quick and easy way to sort photos into different folders (you seem to have to do it 1 photo at a time...which takes FOREVER!)
Shall i fuck it off and start using a different site???

Yup to everything - pb is free though and unlimited so I stick everything in there and avoid any temptation to be organised

I stopped using Photobucket about 6 months ago.
They'd changed their front page to one that doesn't load on my antiquated machine. Apparently you can switch back to the old style page, but the option button for that is located on the new page. :rolleyes
So I've been using Postimage (http://postimage.org/) since then.

all those sites (photobucket/flickr/postimage) are much of a muchness.
pther alternative is if you have webspace from your ISP, you can host the pics on your own webspace
