Thumbs down Do you use the Photobucket site?
Do you use the photobucket site and were you aware that they could be selling your photographs?
Due to recent changes they have added in an option that people can click on to order photos. Up until a few months ago this was only ones own but recently they extended this so that just by browsing, anybodys photos can be selected and prints requested. I know that people can copy your photos off the computer but if you make them small files it doesnt give a good result and few people have really good quality printers for photographs at home.

Making the album private (as I have tried today) and giving people a password is okay but means that it is not possible to directly link to specific pages or albums. The link will just go to the main album and then people have to negotiate through all the lists etc to find the right one - a pain in the ass which i certainly couldnt be bothered with!

Consequently i shall be looking around for another site that I can use. Any recommendations?

To be honest, what do you expect? It costs a lot of money to run these sites as their bandwidth bills are not pretty. You get free hosting, they need to pay for it somehow.

Just don't post anything that you'd be ashamed of when you sober up!
