Title: Me and photo bucket
Post by: pitw on November 04, 2009, 08:24:38 AM
 :doh2:  I got an email from the bucket says I'm over my monthly allotted bandwidth  :shrug:.  They say it will be back up and working on the 13th so all I can say is [something you do on the throne].  Gotta love any free service cause you get what you pay for :laf:. Sorry people but what can I do :confused:.

I open my Pics in Windows Paint then Click Image......Then Stretch Skew......Change the top two #'s (wich should be 100%) To 50% and 50%  ........ Then click file and SAVE! .......This takes up a LOT less room for us folks on dial up, and loads a lot faster into Photobucket....As well as on FNF.

I have like 800 pics in the same album this way and I am only at 15% of my limit.

I hope this helps ya!  :wink:

It says I have more room for pictures but bandwidth was exceeded. :confused:

Bandwidth is traffic, your pics loading on a page when someone views it, you uploading pics, etc.
I'm on a paid account, I think it costs me $25.00 for a year, and I''ll never see the bottom of what they have allocated for me, space or bandwidth.

Pretty cheap actually.

On a paid account what happens if you quit paying?  Do you lose all your images or what.

Good question, I never quit paying :laf:
I dont think you'd loose the pics, they'd more then likely always be up there, but PhotoBucket cuts the links like they have done now on you. Just a guess.
