Recently, my photobucket account went wacky and I can't use Flock anymore. This means uploading pics one at a time. :mad:
Do any of you use another service different from Photobucket that is easy, can upload bulk photos and will allow me to post my photos online?
Thanks. :)

my friend Dennis uses Flickr.......never used it myself, but he likes it
I love flickr. I pay for the yearly membership, totally worth it to me.

Thanks Bill and Brandy. :)
I don't mind paying, so I'll switch over to flickr. Photobucket and Flock were great until just recently. :mad:

check out Smugmug if you don't mind paying. They even have direct link with Picasa if you use that to manage your pictures. You can check out my page if you want to see what it looks like: threeflys.smugmug.com

Did you try contacting tech support? I would hate to lose all my stuff on there so I'd be asking them for help in getting this fixed.

Photobucket works fine for me. Are you sure the problem is with Photobucket? Perhaps your computer?

Likely it's me, EH, but thanks for being polite. :p Seriously, it offers me no links. It's weird. It says it's pulling up the associated account with Flock (i.e. Photobucket), but the page just stops opening. Then I'm stuck with just an album. It may be the settings on my computer. I don't know. But it's very frustrating!

I plan to, but I'm lazy. I'm not going to close the account as I do have all my photos loaded, but I can't load anymore and therein lies the issue.

I use Flickr. They have a nice little app for my computer: Flickr Uploadr, that allows batch uploads.

Thanks, my favorite pics (other than my family) are the ones I took in Antigua, Guatamala. That place is AWESOME!

I've been using Dot Photo http://www.dotphoto.com/ for years for personal use its free and unlimited space.
I also have an account setup for selling photos online.
Here is a link that will also help you find what your looking for and give you a list of all the sites for hosting photos. http://www.andromeda.com/people/ddyer/photo/albums.html

I use photobucket regularly, and have not had any problems. Bulk uploader works fine for me (although I haven't used it since last weekend).

How odd. I have not had any problems...perhaps it is indeed the settings.

Flickr Pro user here. It's a pretty well done website.

Nah, couldn't be. It's the interface between the keyboard and the carbon life form.

I've used Photobucket and have not had any issues.
However, Google's Picasaweb is free. I've used it a few times but have not explored its many features. Since I subscribe to Photobucket, I've not made an effort.
However, Picasaweb is free, it has an upload tool, and the native pictures are larger and allow greater resolution than my paid Photobucket account.
I dont know if you can link pictures like in Photobucket.
