Bingo! Workaround for the photobucket upload problem, maybe worth a save for all of us who use it

Found this with one of the links mnhtnbb gave me, and it worked!!!

Yes, I have the same problem, but I want everyone to know there is currently a work around with this schitzophrenic site.

First just get into your account ( DO NOT UPLOAD ANYTHING AT THIS STAGE!)

Second, You should see just above your photos three boxes (WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT CLICK ON THE UPLOAD BOX). The first box (left hand side) says LIBRARY, so click on that.

Third, You will see all your photos with http addresses etc below each one. Now you will see that the very first box (right next to the first image says: CLICK TO UPLOAD, so click on that and you will then go to a window with all your files folders etc.

Fourth click on the image that you want to be uploaded, and wait for it to complete; yes, it pauses a t 90% but hang in there until you are able to see it in your photobucket account.

I hope this helps!

That tends to be my approach when I can't get something to work one way. I just click around looking for other options to do the same thing and sometimes
something else works.

Photobucket can really try my patience sometimes and other times works just fine.
