>> I’m literally pooing myself because Photobucket has gone down – 1000’s of blog imagery is up there sans backup (yes I’m a dumb dumb who wants to save hard disk space….). I have no idea when it will be back up so until then it’s Style Bubble sans images…. oh dear….could this be the beginning of the end? I knew it was all too good to be true……
EDIT: Panic over! The Photobucket Help Forums went completely bezerk for a bit earlier on with people threatening to sue the site! But all is well again. Style Bubble without images is like me without my fringe – all wrong……
When you save your images (if you don’t do this already of course) – save them as Save For Web (as opposed to just Save As) in your Photoshop options and set it to jpg with a quality setting of say 75. That’ll ensure your images are much smaller, and take up very little disk space on your machine.
oh dear indeed! no, it’s not really a problem. but it would be much easier to use flickr instead of photobucket. before i converted, photobucket used to delete my images randomly and size down my uploaded pictures.
it was horrible! but flickr is very reliable. i can give you full assurance that it’ll always remember and not. muck up?
here: http://www.flickr.com
Can you make pictures on photobucket or flickr without having their logo in the corner then?
Never used them, but will look into it.
Well, I can see everything, so I’m sure it was only a temporarily little problem. 🙂
you can post on flickr, and link to images from flickr as long as the images themselves link back to flickr itself. there is no logo anywhere.
