bah i hosted something there a while ago but now all i see is userposted image so i'll stick to imageshack [/b][/quote] That's cuz I switched to a bigger server
www.ho5t.us 9mb limit. No registration required. It's setup just like Image-Shack, and you can register account, but I've never tried that. I usually host wallpapers I use in battles there.
I had the same prob, well close to it and I swicthed to imagesack try it out. Its far better than bucket. http://www.imageshack.us/
Like someone said earlier, scrape up some cash and get your own host. It's so much easier and you have complete control over it. (Well, for the most part)
Imageshack has better benefits like 1mb uploads and unlimited bandwidth. Still, I have no complaints about Photobucket. It's not like I upload 1 mb files everyday. =P
One word (acronym). FTP. I host all my sigs at my site through FTP, which is hosted by Trap17.com. Go look them up. It's free. And I work there.
