You made me laugh out loud, thanks! That reminds me of the time I flew to Charlotte to work on some machinery the company I was working for had an interest in. We made industrial UV lamps powered by microwaves, and when I got there and no one was looking, I put a sign on one of our lamps that said "If white circle below begins to darken, evacuate area immediately". Under the writing was a big black circle. It took quite a while for someone to sheepishly ask me "Uh... Jim... is that something we should be concerned about?

Post by: Guzzistajohn on October 18, 2015, 11:17:21 PM: Well, I'll try to explain.

Typically, I choose the photo I want to post in PB by clicking on the photo and choosing the box that says URL blah blah blah then go to WG, start a thread and hit CTL - V and my photo drops in the thread and it's a done deal, easy peasy.

Now, I hit CTL- V and I get nothing, capisch?

If you click on the picture so it is enlarged on your screen and tag the image gizmo you'll see that it is underlined in red and won't copy to the clipboard.
You have to click on it in the thumbnail view for whatever reason.. at least that's the way it's started working for me. Needless to say, don't ask me why. :smiley:

The problem isn't CTL-V, it's with CTL-C...at least on my Mac.

Single click on the IMG URL in photo bucket, and it with be highlighted in blue. Then double click on it again, and select copy. You can then paste (or CTR-V) it on the forum.

Yes phootobucket does add a cookie + opens its own full page pop up.They manage do it in spite of all my apps preventing every other site from adding a pop up. After I use photobucket I copy the URL of the pop up and dig it out of cookies and delete it.
The other day I decided to reset Safari on my wife's Mac. It had 5000 cookies. It running much better now. Gotta go back and add a few sites that have passwords but emptying cache isn't always enough. I use 2 browsers Safari and Firefox. Most of my surfing is done on Firefox and I delete cookies everyday and clean it out. Even then you can find stuff in your "library" folder on a Mac that someone has managed to attach and follow you.

I hope you have all your photos on a storage device at home, and make regular backups of that device. DVDs are nice because they're easy to store at a different location, so something like a fire can't destroy everything.

Assuming you already have your photos under your own control, you can leave a hosting site like Photobucket, but all the photos there that you've posted in places like this board will disappear. To get them back, you'd have to relink them one at a time to your new hosting site. It would probably be better to abandon Photobucket, leaving your photos there, and start using a new site from that point on.

Trusting someone else's system to your store photos, or any other important information safely is a big mistake, be it a "Cloud", a photo hosting site, or any other system you don't have control over. The hosting sites are only good for storing copies of your photos and letting you link to them on various Internet sites, or letting friends easily view copies of your photos.

If you really need to get all your photos from Photobucket, you should be able to go to "your bucket" and use the "download album" get to a copy of everything onto your computer.
