I just got on Photobucket OK a minute ago. Some parts of the internet has been extremely slow in recent days ...

Might be part of the Denial Of Service attacks that have been going on the internet for the better part of the week after the internet for the Wikileaks guy was shut off in the Embassy of Ecuador, London, England. It made hackers mad that someone (wonder who?) got the embassy to cut off his internet in the middle of releasing a bunch of emails ...

Thanks for the info T

Just tried to login to Photobucket and was unable to connect. I was having no issues. Setup a 14 day trial account on Smugmug so I could post a photo on a post this morning. It was easy to use but I'm not too keen on paying $3 or more a month. Been using Photobucket for years without too many problems and I think I pay about $5 a year for extra storage space. Going to wait and see if/when Photobucket comes back online.
