I’m not so sure to trust PhotoBucket… [%-)]

It seems as if everyone else uses it to post photos but are you sure I can do it without popups and stuff. Are you sure (maybe Im just worrying too much)[#oops]

Popups? you mean like CONGRATULATONS! YOU"VE JUST WON A MILLION DOLLARS type things? never gotten me, you should be fine. If your really worried, I’d find a good pop-up blocker. You might get advertisements frfom themm once a month, but for their stuff, and I think you can turn it off. And they’ll e-mail you if you fill up your bucket for that month.

I have posted a number of photos on Photobucket.com and linked to different threads in this forum with no problems.

McAfee Site Advisor gives Photobucket a green checkmark, meaning it is OK. They record less than 1 e-mail per month, it is linked to ‘green’ sites and no popups. This is a link to the McAfee report on Photobucket:

If you’re worried about getting pop-ups, get a pop-up blocker. Yahoo offers a very good one with the Yahoo Tool bar. It even blocks Yahoo’s ad’s.

That’s the only way to go.
