How do you upload pictures using photo bucket?

[Galaxy613]

By upload I assume you mean use pictures from photobucket in your posts. Basically, all you need to do is get the URL of the image from photobucket, and then click that Tree picture when you make a post and put the URL in there, or use this code:

[img]url-here[/img]

At photobucket when you hover over a picture it shows you a "direct link" box. That is the URL you need.

I'd say to avoid Photobucket altogether. Pics hosted there tend to expire and make write-ups useless. Use Flickr instead.

To my knowledge, pictures don't "expire" in Photobucket. The picture links (what you view in a write-up) are broken or disabled when the user moves or deletes the picture. The older write-ups have pictures that have been moved within their image sharing site or deleted by the person (they could have deleted the pictures if they quit Nerf)

Mac Daddy:
1) Go to the site, www.photobucket.com
2) Make an account (it's free) & sign in
3) Click the folder you'd like to upload the pictures to
4) Click the large, blue button called "choose files"
5) Select your picture files (a "my pictures" screen should pop up)
6) When they are finished uploading, you can copy and paste the URL option and we can view them, or just the links if you don't want to embed them here.

I've been using photo bucket ever since I got into Nerf and nothing has ever happened. There are still pictures in there from when I first joined.

But really the help section would have had this. You didn't search.
