Photobucket!?
I am getting very fedup with the slowness of Pb. Everytime I try to open an album it doesn't - anyone else having this problem? I even tried to re-join with cleared cookies but that was still wowingly slow too.
Or should I change to another host. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

No problems here!
Maybe you have got a large number of albums and / or a large number of photos per album? I don't, and it is very quick to open and access for me.

My photbucket album pages open in about 6secs which is acceptable for me.
Because it works, has very little down time, it's free, it has editing and resizing facilities etc. If you wish to waste your money that's your affair, some of us has better things to do with our pensions.
Why use that "photobucket" bull**** at all??

I haven't checked their rules lately, but photobucket used to have a tight limit on the amount of bandwidth you could use per day.
If you posted a link to an interesting picture (say, here), they'd block access after approximately ten views a day depending on the size of the picture.
They didn't want to provide easy widespread access to your photos, as that takes server time. Servers and bandwidth cost money.

I've noticed more and more unwanted 'new features' plaguing photobucket of late.
It used to be quite quick and straightforward; it can nowadays be an utter PITA.

THAT! Is what I meant BEags.
I have got in twice since my post but only once been able to access my albums - then I was unable to edit, move or do anything else.
It is so slow as to be unusuable.
