Uploading pictures from websites and ebay - can no longer do it
Is anyone else finding that they now can't save and upload pictures from various websites anymore? l am trying to save various shoe pictures from ebay and upload them onto photobucket, but it is now a wrong file type. What's going on, why the monkey business?

Re: Uploading pictures from websites and ebay - can no longer do it
I've noticed that some people have "copyrighted" images on eBay, which is the most ridiculous thing ever (as if someone is going to steal their images of a smelly pair of old shoos and then use those images in a context in which the alleged thief will make thousands of dollars without compensating the person who took the photos of the smelly old shoos). Screenshots usually end up as bitmaps, which are unwieldy, although I always found that Microsoft Photo Editor would save them as jpgs, which was nice (that piece of software is now long gone, unfortunately).

Move to flickr.us and forget photobucket. That would be a start IMO.
