The "new" Photobucket was okay while it lasted but that's coming to an end June 1 if you have a free account. A couple of months ago I was notified that the free limit was 250 photos. I had 276 and had to delete the overage, but I was still only at a small fraction of the monthly bandwidth limit. Now that's changing to a mere 25mb per month, and if you go over, your photos will be blurred.
They have to have a viable business model but all the changes make me leery of paying them and having things change again. Plus it's slow as molasses. What are the odds that they'll be around a year from now?
