"New" Photobucket Completely Screwed Up !
« on: March 07, 2013, 08:32:58 AM »
Is anyone else having this trouble? They "improved" the site, and now it has become completely useless. From what I've been reading no one is happy with it. My pictures take forever to load. And after they all do the whole page locks up and you can't do anything with it.

It is unbelievably slow to load. I have around 400 pictures on it, and I just tried to be patient and let it load them all, and it took over 15 minutes. Then, when I tried to scroll it is completely locked up, even though the task bar at the bottom of the page says "Done". Sometimes the whole page disappears, then suddenly reappears. The entire site has become totally useless. I hate like hell to move everything to another site. I wish these websites would just leave well enough alone. Photobucket used to work beautifully. Now, they might just as well have removed it for all it's currently worth.

Just logged on to mine to check, wasnt aware it changed.
However I dont seem to have the same issues your having.
There is a hyperlink at the bottom that says view full website, I clicked that and it loaded all my pics pretty quick.
cheers

I only have a dozen pictures on photobucket.  Mostly one off things. Most of which I need to delete.  Just went tot the web site and navigated around my library.  No problems.

I use Picasaweb for all my photos,but they have become Google Plus and I'm not entirely pleased with the changes they have made.  I may have to look for another web site this year.

Checked mine, seems a bit different to cut/copy/paste pics, as I often like to do. Just a another friggin' in the riggin' to make things
"easier".... :-\

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

I'm learning how to use it, but it isn't as easy as the original.

That said, nobody has complained about my attempt yesterday  ;)

Good here too.

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

I had issues and had to restart.  Nothing on the page started when I clicked it.

It is slow moving from page to page within the website.  They do say it's a BETA page when I logged on.



You can see that Ruger on the left needs some TLC.
