Mods, Admins, Once I finish this we can lock it and sticky it somewhere else. For now Had William sticky it here for those that needed to know how.
Putting together this walk through on how to get your photos off of Photobucket.
Login to Photobucket
Click on Library
IF you keep your stuff organized like I do you will need to do this for each Album you have in Photobucket. Id save a folder on your desktop called Photobucket. Each Album will be created in its own folder as you download them. youll need to choose where you save them depending on what browser your using. in my Case Im on a MAC so it maybe different.
Now on each Album you will have an action category down on the right side of the page.
Click on Download Album
Next youll get a box that pops up that shows a Download or Cancel Select Download
Next the box will change to a Captcha screen, you will put a check mark in that box and depending on how many times you do this they will start having you work out puzzles like select all the pictures with cars in it. This is to show that you are a human. If you get the puzzle just follow the instructions until it makes the Download Button blue which means it has accepted your response.
The next screen will show you that its downloading. If its a big Album it may take a while. You dont have to wait though. As you can see on the screen when its ready for you to click download you can wait for the email. When the email arrives you can click on it and it will open up Photobucket again with a download link. Click it and it will download your album to a folder where you designate.
If you stick around the screen will go away and show you the Download link to download your Pictures.
Sometimes Photobucket doesnt send the email and it completely flakes out. Keep trying though it will eventually work. IF your download big albums then its going to take a while for this to be completed so hang in there. Its Frustrating but thats why we are doing this so we can be done with Photobucket and watch their demise in the news in the coming weeks. =-)
Part 2 I will show you how to setup your Imgur account and what link you want to use to put your pictures on message boards. And its so much better. No popups. No Laggy performance.
