if you get a free trial acct at flickr you can upload and post up to 1000 images......there are several tutorials online to get you started........if you had difficulties when you first posted pics here,you may find the flickr approach challenging

I have a flickr acct.....to post a photo I open my flickr acct,click on the upload cloud icon,and then drag my photos into flickr.......after they all indicate readyness, I click the blue upload rectangle.....all chosen photos will then be imported into flickr ///////////////////// if you can get this far and wish to go further,please respond here and I`ll resume this tutorial

Before I waste a lot of time I'll never get back setting up new accounts I don't really want, is there any timeline on when this posting problem will actually  be fixed?

@perrone1 Tony......I used to run across Fotki entries back before I began posting here.....pretty neat place....what is the annual fee for an unlimited membership there ?..........my flickr acct runs a pretty steep 59.00/yr

I have the Premium S level John, no ads - about $20 annually. I've had the account for about 10 years. Got out of PhotoBucket as soon as I could when they held everyone's photos hostage!

Sounds like I may have bet on the wrong pony,AGAIN.....what the hell......... the 39.00 savings would have been wasted on Clark Bars anyway

I lost YEARS of input with the Photobucket fiasco 🤨 .....recently I discovered that,with a button push,flickr would email me ALL of my stored images in full size,in a rar file

Fortunately, I kept all my images that were uploaded to PhotoBucket on 'large-file' memory sticks. B U T, making transfers was so daunting that I only moved a very few to online image-hosting sites.

I was burnt by PB and never again will I pay for a photo hosting program. I just will not post pics. As for me saving my own, a nice  Terabyte unit can store my archives easily

Because you are a Pro, mine is free.

I don't even know why we are discussing this; Flick is the best; I use it for years. My stuff on Flickr is only for forums, I don't use it as a storage. PB was something else ...
