    I upload from the iPhone like Eric VW. I have Amazon prime and they have a free app that you can backup all your pics to. I just got it so I haven't used it much.

    Not exactly.

    I have a PB account. They want me to upgrade for$9.99/month. In return I will get 100GB of storage space and eliminate ads. I have no need for that much space and my FireFox ad blocker takes care of the ads. I think I will pass on the upgrade.

    Like others, I upload right from my computer.

    My adblocker blocks 60 ads on PB now. That's nuts.

    Photobucket.... blech. Was always a pain because if you clicked on a photo in PB with a mobile, it took longer to load and was a PITA to zoom on a pic. The site's native pic capabilities are very easy to use IMO and work better than embedding from a 3rd party.

    Good luck photobucket, I will not miss you!

    Have had a photobucket account for 10+ years. They can pizz up a rope! Honestly, with all the ads, the site doesn't run very well on most of my devices anyways. No big loss.
