Photobucket for Dummies

**J_MC_G** · 15-01-2011, 08:54 AM

Ok, first of all open a photobucket account here Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket, I won't go through that stage as its self explanatory!

Once done, you'll have a blank default album and the option to create albums and move images at a later date. Its important at this stage the images you want to upload and on the computer/network drive/usb key and also your phone but we'll leave that one for now.

Once created click "Upload Now" at the top:

Next screen after selecting the location and album click "Select photos and videos":

You're now presented with a standard dialogue box to find images on your media, to select multiple images from the same folder use ctrl or shift for large quantities of consecutive images:

Once completed it will upload the images to your album:

You have the choice of uploading more photos, saving and returning to the album or adding a title/description at the bottom to each image (this can be done at any stage:

Back in your album view, click on the image and a host of tag options come up, you want the bottom \[IMG\] \[/IMG\] ones, so just click on the link and "Copied" will appear (into your clipboard, so ctrl-v later to paste):

Then all you have to do is go to your website of choice (clearly here) and paste it in just like when I created this thread all above.

Thats it, job done. There's tonnes of editing options on photobucket if you don't want to do it on your laptop, simple things like blurring number plates etc.

**CharlySkunkWeed** · 02-04-2013, 06:51 PM

Yes (to both , lol)

The method is the same , just harder to do the copy/paste bit at the Photobucket end.

Its alright , i cant do it either ! I have to email mine

**J_MC_G** · 02-04-2013, 09:04 PM

Its really not that hard guys, the interface hasn't changed that much. If you're using a computer, login, and hit Upload on the top and you've got a big dashed out box. Now, you can drag and drop or in the middle of the box click "Browse Files" button and do it that way.
