Photobucket

Anyone else having difficulties with Photobucket? After I upload a photo the site often locks up and I have to close and re-open it.

Uploaded one as a test - seemed fine.

It sometimes balks at doing what you ask it to do. I tried to delete an image and it would freeze (this happened 3 times in succession), then it worked. Sometimes when I upload an image, it looks like it's taming forever, but the file will have been uploaded if you check the library.

Yes. I am trying to upload some very large images. One is 120MB other was 190MB.
Both froze at 90%.
Have I missed a maximum photo size?
They are jpgs.

Bill, those are mighty large JPEGs. I limit my uploads to 12mg. or less.

I've been going stitch crazy.
I have an x100 image of my first section: daffodil ovary.
Its a 12000, 15000 monster.
I'd like to get it public somehow so forum members can look and I have a few freinds who might like.
Ho Hum.

If you wish, you can upload the file to DropBox, and then your friends can download it to their computers.

Bill, you can also try resizing the image to a smaller pixel count and see what it looks like.
