Photobucket is becoming just too difficult to use. The revisions / refinements are worthless to the project. What other easy-to-use sites would you recommend?. Other than posting pics on TB, e-mails, etc., I have no other use.
Thanks
Riis

Edit: The same holds true for Flickr: I uploaded a photo but remain unsure as to the procedure to post it within a TB thread.

| Flickr isn't too hard to do, but there's a trick to it...click on the photo so that you see the different sizes. Once you get to one of those photos, you can copy the image url.
Edit: after you click on a photo, on the upper right corner, it has "View all sizes." After you click that, the url of the photo there can be copied, and you can pick the size you want.

I tried it and sent them a bunch of reasons why it sucks, then switched back to the old format. I haven't gone back to the new one to see if they followed my recommendations.

That's okay as I've got Flickr up and running. I much preferred PB as the uploads and editing capabilities were insanely easy.

Riis | When I go into the new Photobucket (which I just did, and it still sucks), there's a link near the upper right hand corner that lets you switch back to the old PB.

I appreciate all the suggestions!
