An update to the great "Photobucket vs. Flickr" debate. Photobucket has become, for me at least, less pleasant to use. When I first started using the service, I'd upload a pic, copy a link, and I was done. Now, I have to choose which album I want to go to, tell them no, I don't want to email the pic, and put up with a few other annoyances. And there are ads everywhere, and they expand to cover things I need to click if my mouse pointer so much as grazes the edge of them. Oh, and I
don't have any interest in editing the pic I just uploaded; I have Paint for that, thank you. Gah. I remember when websites had no frills or gimmicks and were quick and easy to use. Bet I could get some of that back if I pay them for a Pro account.
As for Flickr, I'm still ignoring them, and Imageshack always tries to fling popups at me, which Vista blocks, fortunately. There's also a site called Picasaweb but they lie to Google about their image sizes (Google Search says that a given image on Picasaweb is 3000 pixels tall but when clicked it's only 1600 pixels) so I'm not inclined to trust them.
Stars, I wish DA allowed hotlinking.
