Photobucket users - help! Now solved thanks.
« on: Sunday 10 March 13 15:45 GMT (UK) »
For anyone that's a Photobucket user are you finding problems? I hate the new version and have been trying for hours to upload a picture from my computer - they reckon you can just drag and drop and it's not working.

Can anyone please tell me in very simple terms how to do it? Or is Photobucket broken?!

I don't bother with drag and drop I just select the file location and let it upload the file this way. I don't use it very often but am not a fan of this new version.

Hi Alan - I've also tried clicking on the "browse" button in the hope of getting to the file - I can sit there clicking away and absolutely nothing happens  ???   I'm wondering if they've moved over to the new version without ironing out all the glitches first  :(

Sorted - needed to install the latest versions of Flash and Java.
