[tots-junction-baby-shop]

Can someone tell me whats happening with uploading photo's are we no longer able to do it from photobucket anymore? everyone seems to be leaving links to albums etc!
Are we no longer able to have photo's on here? or is it something they're sorting out I have a couple of things to show but not sure how/what to do...
Apologies if I've missed something thats explained it all

"E bay have really pissed it up, in my opinion"
 
Sums it up perfectly Jane - well said. 
 
There are many different sites around the world running forums. All work efficiently, and make it easy for their members. 
 
eBay have spent so much time and effort trying to control what their members can and cannot do, they have lost touch with reality and common sense. They should be truly ashamed of their efforts and management of this very messed up change.

the annoying part is that a few weeks ago,you could just copy and paste the image directly onto the group,but ebay seems to be have knackered this up too,the whole thing is a disgrace,it a waste of time trying to get answers from ebay also,because ive been trying for weeks,all that happens is that the ebay rep disappears and nobody gets an answer,this group has a strong core and thats what has made it survive,unfortunately the other groups havent been so lucky,and are really suffering,the last time i looked on the eps group for instance,nobody has posted on it for 5 days,and the acaf 3 days:-(

THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT ALL THIS CRAP ABOUT PHOTOS IT DOES MAKE THE LURKERS WORK A LITTLE BIT HARDER TO SEE THE RESULTS 
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY DAZ I KNOW YOU DO WHAT YOU CAN BUT THE PHOTO SIDE OF THIS FORUM IS HALF OF ALL WE DO ITS VERY INPORTANT IS THER ANY THING WE CAN DO

WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT IMAGESHACK IS IT THE SAME FOR PHOTOBUCKET DAZ ?

[thehornets]

I'm not convinced people are checking messages often either. It is tucked away at the bottom, so people forget the option exists.

lol, Jane ? Nigel:)

Paul:)

You are absolutely right Daz, this group does, as you say "Have a hard core of members" I honestly think if e bloody bay cant sort this, then we may have to break away from here and start a forum of our own.

Even if they do sort the image issue, then we all know something else will go wrong in the days following:(

[thehornets]

Sorry Paul, a bit tired today. 🙂

i dont think groups that have started on ebay and then move off ebay work personally,i wont be going anywhere else anyway:-)

[knockknock-66]

Thats ok mate, i know the feeling:)

I posted a link on this thread to test it and it is tiny:( How the hell is anyone supposed to see the tiny image?

Or have i done it wrong??

I'm so glad this has been brought up. The first pic I posted on the new format was so easy but, the last one didn't work when I used the same procedure. It's really annoying. If it ain't broke...

I may try Imageshack as I find that I sometimes have to put up the Photo bucket link 2-3 times before it works.I was quite happy initially when I could put the picture straight up but thats stopped now.
I agree with the messages,I think everyone should check under the My Content and messages regularly as you don't see what messages you have until you go into it.

E-bay have ruined a perfectly good forum IMO.

Won't be the same again....That pisses me off big time.

Thanks guys for agree with me....I love to see peoples hard work I hate clicking on all the links...hopefully they'll sort it.
Daz has come up with a way of putting photo's on from photobucket...I couldnt do it but Jess managed after a while.....it was so easy cutting/pasting.
I was getting a bit bored with not being able to put my photos on as said before it's a big part of the forum I do hope they sort it 😄
We've had a couple of replies that I'm going to try and put the pictures up later so watch this space
And Daz thanks for trying to find a solution for us whinning women....it's appreciated
