Yeah, I've been noticing lately Photobucket sucks.  I'm looking for a new site too.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

You could try using Google Drive. I use it for documents, photos, videos, ect. A free account gives you 15GB. You can upgrade to 100GB for $2 a month or even 1TB for $10 a month.

I use Flickr and i still have photobucket (sux lately). I like IMGUR for quick upload because account,registration or log in  is not needed.
You can open a thread ask this question bellow on POTN,create account, it's free; here are 1000s of pro and amateurs lurking this site daily;   http://photography-on-the.net/forum/index.php?full  , go to this sub-forum  ,
Presentation & Building Galleries"; maybe the best photo forum on the internet .You will find all kind of  tips about gear, techniques, post processing  and presentation to improve your results even for amateurs;
Over 90% are using Flickr, and laughing at photobucket,  and very few Smugmug, picasa ... .

I have photobucket and I have noticed the same trend. I just pay like $8/mo or less (bookkeeper tends to it) for Squarespace for unlimited storage, which comes in handy with the larger camera formats I use.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Hey Molsman, does your squad website have the ability to upload and host images?  If I want to host graphics instead of link to them I'll put them up on one of my websites.
So much easier than photobucket type site if you can do it.

Nothing clever here.  Please, move along.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I never really thought about the squad website ROC I will have to look into it. I just started to get into photography and all but also been with photbucket for years and have noticed lately the problems I have been having .

I've got coppermine installed on my site and, while it's a little clunky, it gets the job done
