Curmudgeon 28 #1 Posted November 19, 2008 It's been a few months since I've had reason to visit photobucket. I see they've been making "improvements". Also known as adding so much crap it bogs down my computer so bad it renders itself virtually useless. In an attempt to access the pictures I want, I'm working at deleting many others. So if some of the pictures I have linked to from here no longer work, you know why. Yet another "company" has improved itself to uselessness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Curmudgeon 28 #9 Posted November 25, 2008 Call me old-fashioned and not with the times, after all, I AM!!!!!!!!, but all that "cool" stuffs simply renders a picture to a lower quality. Why? It drags down the site, or at least my browser. Now mind you, you rich guys with your all powerful, latest and greatest computers won't notice this. Out here in the world I'm forced to live in, with my 6 or so year old computer, I do. Photobucket did load slightly faster today, but then, I reduced my photos to less than a third. Scrolling is impossible, it's just jumps, starts, and stops, as my computer tries to deal with all the crap. Linux is a wonderful thing, for without it, I couldn't compute at all, but it can only do so much. But, crap is what the public wants, just like it wants 27 cupholders and heated break pedals in their cars. Yeah, I've always been in the minority when it comes to what comes out of Detroit too. Thank you for the :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
