Is photobucket a safe site? I'm not sure whether or not I'll make an account on there, but I would like know.

Same here, If I didn't have a photobucket account, I wouldn't have been able to show you guys my art. I think it's a pritty good, and safe site. :D

What I mean by safe is, well, would I get some sort of virus, will my stuff be safe, will my e-mail be given out...Stuff like that.

I've never heard of PhotoBucket doing anything like that. I'm pretty sure it's reasonably secure in that way.


I see alot of "Error", "Bandwidth Exeeded", etc. messages related to PhotoBucket files though...but I've not encountered any of that using Image Shack myself, (though I have seen 'Image Shack' error messages elsewhere).

...I've not heard of either being problems with Virus's or E-Mail sell-outs. However, that does not mean it never happens. I just don't know...but I'm not too worried. I use them with reasonable confidence.

I've never had any problems with "Photobucket" other than slowness (and that's probably more to do with my connection than with Photobucket itself).

I also use it :D but my gallery is private. Only I can see it, and everyone can see the pictures I choose to use on other sites.

I used to use it, but I think it sucked so I moved back to using Imageshack.
