Photobucket Changeover

[cabinetman]

I received an email to agree to a changeover in Photobucket. I'm always leery about "upgrades". I had no problems with the way it was. A few weeks ago, I got a sampling and it didn't display images as easily as before, so I didn't agree to it then. Anyone have feedback on agreeing to this and what the "New" Photobucket will differ from the old?

I have had trouble with the upgrade, not as intuitive as the old format. It's to the point that I'm considering switching to another web hosting service. Just another fix to something that was not broke.

I got the same perception when I saw a test. It seems that there is no choice, that there will be a change whether we like it or not. Is that right? My notice stated to do it now and get bonus storage. If we don't click on "get started", what will happen. Will the account still be there, but just appear differently?

About a month ago there was a button on there site that would revert to old format. As of last use that button is gone or buried deep somewhere in settings.

Is Photobucket a paid service? If so you might give some thought to buying a doamin and hosting services. GoDaddy.com can set you right up with more storage than you are ever likely to outgrow.
