Photobucket is an online storage space for you to upload your picture and video files to so that you can share them with others on the net. They're private until you give someone else the URL (actual address) to each pic. eg. http://i10.photobucket(.)com/albums/a132/Siouxhealer/23b.jpg Remove the brackets This address can be inserted into other types of forums to make your pictures visible - not here in Genes though.... cause their's is rubbish!! ;~) It's also an easy way to share the whereabouts of your pics via an email. Instead of attaching the pics you just copy and paste the address into the email, then the recipient can click on it. Perfect for Ebayers to host their pictures on - rather than paying extra to Ebay. It's also free to host on and there's no upper limit to the amount you can store there. There are others to chose from besides Photobucket. Just Google picture hosting. Shout up if you want to know anything else XX Sioux
