Stay away from Photobucket..

I logged into the Bucket a little while ago and waded through all the pop-up ads. I was able to download all my photos. I normally keep photos on a flash drive but some of them I had uploaded were before I started doing that. So you might try doing that if you don't have other copies... download the album.

Wally: another thing that will free up bandwidth is locking that ridiculous 'Next President' thread.
Update: now 26 thousand page views? 500K per page (with the new reduced-size files, and 800K until the reduction)

Danial thx for that info. Going to do that now from the PC. Tried to view something from my phone on the bucket and when I click on the px it takes me back to the bucket icon as if it kicks me out


Will be finding another option for my px.

26,000 views makes for over 150,000 ad impressions, so it is probably paying for it's bandwidth.

Just in case you were not aware: there is a clever hack out there that allows you to view previously-blocked photobucket images. It's an add-on for the Google Chrome browser, that tricks Photobuckets servers into thinking you're a paid-up user.
A search for 'google chrome photobucket' will find a few links, this being one of them:
