Checking out some social networking sites - Photobucket

I've been using Photobucket since October 10, 2004, and I must say that it has evolved over the time. At first, it was just a place where you can upload your photos (only) and show it to others via direct link (for me at least). Now you can upload videos as well and share it to the public, there is an option you can choose whether to make your photos private or public. You can also put a password on your album so only certain individuals have access to it.

They also give you an option to edit your pictures as soon as you upload your picture. Back then, you can only rotate or resize it; now you can do a plethora of things like add special effects, decorate, add animations, etc.

Luckily, uploading pictures is just as easy as back then, with new options. Just click on the 'Choose files' button and choose a picture you want to upload, and that's it! You can also acquire pictures from web sites, mobile phone, and email.

Normally you get the free account which of course have limitations; like 1 gb space, 25 gb bandwidth, 5 minute max video length, and 1024 x 768 max picture size. You can upgrade to Pro anytime with some limits removed and the rest upgraded for $40 per year.

If you want an easy place to upload pictures without all the hassle, try Photobucket today.
