Anyone used photobucket before?

[Finedon.Dandy]

I moved from ebay to ebid (as you dont pay to list so more practical for me as I carry so many different items of craft stock) and to use their bulk uploader, photos have to be located on the web. I was told photobucket was the best but it took me a week (on and off between me wearing all my other hats) to get 150 photos on there as it kept crashing and so it really put me off doing anymore for a while. I really need to sell some stuff as am very skint and was re-enthused this morning. I was pleased to see that improvements have been made to the photobucket web site and it seemed to wizz through the first 9 (1st one on its own and then 8 together) so I tried 12 and it crashed just over 67% through. Am I being too impatient here? Hubbie is the technical one and when I have a prob he just gets on with fixing it - I dont get a chance to learn at all (I dont even have my opwn printer - its in his office connected by a network) which is annoying as I used to do basic computer training so I'm not a complete techno phobe or wally. Anyone got any advice. Going to stick with 5/6 for mo anyway or wont get anywhere.

Yes I use photobucket in my shops on eBid.net and used to use it on eBay when I traded there.
I have a paid account not the free account so I do not know if it makes a difference.
I wonder if one or more of your photos are too big. If you are batch loading then 1 wrong one can put the whole lot out/unable to load. Other than that I am not sure what else might be the problem but they do have extensive help pages so a quick glance at them might uncover the answer to your problem

I use it but have never had it crash on me but then again the most I've tried to upload at any one time is about 10 pics. It can be a bit slow. Maybe you could do them in batches of 10 throughout the day? Time consuming I know, but at least it won't keep crashing.
