Fred there is a separate dog who carries nothing but hammers, & he is much bigger! :lol:

My bucket is 90 % full, so that's another reason to use two host. I still use the bucket for sigpics since it doesn't automatically resize the pics. postimg will unless you set it not to. I found that out the hard way. I kept sizing a pic down for a sigpic & upload to postimg & it would get bigger, I did it 2 -3 times before I got wise...er.

Well I tried it and the damb thing took over my computer and totally changed my home screen and then fought me on trying to uninstall it. Spent several hours and a slow running computer to get mine back to normal.
I think I'll just stick with PB till I find something better.

I always resize pics before uploading to PB. They always come out of my phone humungous in size. Though you can resize them in PB once you get them there.

Sorry Ron. I've never heard of anything like that. Fred had some trouble getting it to work for him, I pm-ed him some pointers of how I do it, told him to hollar at Joe if he still couldn't do it. I dont know what he did finally but he got it. Ron did you create your own account?

Naw he wont run a rabbit,,,or go get you a beer but I wouldn't trade him for one who did. This dog knows the difference between a 9/16 wrench & 1/2'' just by the sound of it hitting the concrete. :lol: :lol: :lol: that's why I don't make him carry the BFH!!! :lol: :lol: :roll:

Never had a chance to create an account. You start the download process and you have no alternatives, it asks you to install what amounts to its' own browser page which eliminates the default page. Would not let me get to my normal browser. Had to go back and redo all the settings. It didn't want to uninstall and computer was running super slow. Had to do some scans and clean :oops: out to get it going again. It's either poorly designed software or may have had a virus, I don't know but will never try that one again.

Ron I just clicked on that link,,,did you click on a big green button that said start download? if so that is an ad, I think for some browser package. :lol: :lol: You need to watch what you click on any unfamiliar site ,& dont click on an advertisement.


at the top right of page is a small button that says ''sign up''

I don't remember seeing the 'sign up' button. and yes I clicked on the big green button that said DOWNLOAD assuming that was the ap. And yes it became a browser. I try to be very careful before clicking on anything. Apparently I was fooled. Of course its not the first and probably not the last. I may take another look at but will be with extreme caution. Thanks.

Ron dont click on anything that says ''download''. Downloading is putting something on your puter. sign & log in buttons both on top right. to put pics on it will say ''choose images'' or ''upload''.

poboy, Went back and tried it again and now it works right. Haven't uploaded any pics yet but got it going. Is there a simple way to copy from my PB account to this one? That would be nice to copy the whole folder instead of doing it one pic at a time. Thanks.
