A lot of Bolters could share their pictures there. We didn't have time to figure it out after they started to change things. The nature of things, I suppose, but we got our bill for the annual fee and I went and made sure we could get in. We can and it has changed a lot. Will require some poking around. We have 8,184 photos from many years. See if you can can get in and see the images. It may require that you set up an account. I really don't know. (I guess I can ask my buddy Grok.  ) ITMT, we'll plug along and see what shakes. (We had to change to Capital One from our trusted Discover card this morning. Bother.  But what can you do?) Seize the day before it seizes you. (Speaking us, our Word doc program has been sized for a few days. Bother ...  )

Another quality post.

Kinda need that to see if we can even locate the "bucket" spot and then try and see what's needed to access. I'd love to be able to see into that history looking glass.

When I would click a link and end up at Photobucket and it wants me to create an account, I just return to Stovebolt without seeing an photos. 😕

Now, I'm logged in and that may be the difference. In the very beginning, a viewer didn't have to have a PB account to see or link to pictures. Maybe at that time, most people were using Webshots - which went belly up. Maybe PB realized they needed to get more subscriptions. Can't blame them really. The amount to transfer bytes of an image/video is eye-popping: From PC Net .... Answer: Even small images take up as much space as several pages of text. This is because each dot (or pixel) in the image has a certain value, which means there are lot of values to store. For example, a bitmap image that is 100 x 200 pixels in size must store 20,000 values. An image that is 640 x 480 must store 307,200 pixels.
Text documents, on the other hand, require a value for each character. Since each character takes up one byte of space, a page with 2,000 characters equals 2,000 bytes or about two kilobytes (2K). Compare that to a small 100 x 200 bitmap (.BMP) image, which takes up 124K.We had to adjust a bunch of stuff once more and more images started coming including our budget. Even now with a Hosting company, we have a set amount for each month and then mid-month, we have a charge for overage. The overage creeps up each month.
