Dunno Rob, I save 'em on my hard drive in a photo's folder straight from my camera or phone and when I want to post a photo I "browse" to that folder then click "add file" then "place in line"

. Never had any issues and don't understand what photo bucket's purpose is

. Is it like an on line external memory bank

If so after a time they may delete, then photo's on forum would have no reference

Just a guess
Johnny
