So I seem to have a problem when opening some threads with photos, it takes ages to download, most times not all the photos come and in extreme cases none at all. I have never been successful in getting them to load perfectly. They are members who have photobucket accounts, so its not some weird photo-hosting web page
and its always the same, thread with 4 or more photos in ? Is it me ? or do other people have the same problem, I hate it
cos - I want to see the photos and they just wont load

Do you have dial up? When we had it, I had the same problem
. Sorry I don't have an answer for you, being a computer newbie for the most part.

No, I have broadband, and its very quick, so this is really bugging me, as everything else comes down real fast, it only seems to be only multiple photos

I run into that from time to time, though not constantly by any means. I find the best thing to do is to interrupt the loading of the page and then refresh. That usually fixes the problem.

Photobucket is doing some upgrades, so it is probably that some of those servers are down for a short time, I know I couldn't log into my account the other day but could log in to my work one when they had it shut down for maintenance
