The mongrel Photobucket postings to Pprune
A couple of years back I used Photobucket to post pictures on Pprune. I finally got the hang of it after frequent hiccups.
Recently I tried to use Photobucket to post a photo of a Handley Page Hastings on the Aviation History and Nostalgia forum. Despite literally an hour of clicking the mouse and swearing at my own apparent incompetence, I was quite unable to make work the various hints and instructions kindly published on Pprune by the experts at the game.
I am certain the format of Photobucket has changed significantly since I last used it successfully two years ago. Trying to highlight and copy the various URL needed to place the photo on Pprune simply failed to work as often the URL was greyed out and I kept on getting a message about the latest Adobe update when I right clicked on the direct link URL.
I had to give up in the end which is such a shame as I have got some wonderful old photos to place on Aviation History and Nostalgia forum. I have studied the various advice given on Pprune re posting of pictures but maybe I am just plain dumb just like my Latin teacher said I was in 1940 at school.
Without stretching the friendship too much I wonder if some kind soul could once more clearly list the required steps using the current version of photobucket? Thank you in advance.
