Have any of you had difficulties with Photobucket in the last week?

The Log In problems have been solved if you believe the PB bulletins but I cannot copy and paste any photos from my "library"on to here.
In the colour changing topic I was able to upload from my saved items onto PB albeit slowly a photo of a Ford Capri but on trying to click on the IMG bar my cursor changes from the small hand to just two vertical lines and has no effect and the word "copied" does not appear.

Any ideas please?

Hi Ellis. The subject/problem of Photobucket was discussed here.

http://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/forum/phpbb/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=19475

I am curious as to whether any OCC member is happy with PB ?

I've used it for many years but the login problems remain as do correctly saving pictures. All new uploads appear in a different place and not in upload order. It is now a royal pita. To copy and paste I open the photo and them click on the panel on the right. sometimes it copies automatically, sometimes I have to highlight and copy.

I have experienced all the problems above, and do the same as Lowdrag opening the photo right click and copy the IMG code.....

Sometimes it's ok, sometimes not!

Things haven't improved much even after I signed up with 9.99 annual membership either!

Oh, that's annoying. I always figured that the recent slow-down and prevalence of adverts was to persuade people to pay for the service, whereupon all would be great again.

Yes it did get rid of the adverts, but still having problems!

If the reviews via Google search for PB is anything to go by, you are not alone.
