Default A couple of photobucket tips - handy for multiple images

Right, had this discussion with St3v3 last night, so thought I'd post it up for all to see.

I am sure this will be familiar to some of you, but others may benefit

Go to www.photobucket.com and create a new album

Download filezilla from here: http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/ , it’s free !!!

Install filezilla

Run filezilla

In the Address field, enter ftp.filezilla.com (1)
In the user field, enter your username (2)
In the password field, enter you password (3)

Then click on the “QuickConnect” button (4)

This should log you onto photobucket

In the “Remote Site” window (right hand side), navigate to the album you want to add pictures to.

Note: In the “Remote Site” window, if you right click in the white space, you can create a new directory, this is equivalent to adding an album in photobucket.

In the “Local Site” window (left hand side), navigate to where your pictures are.

Select the pictures you want to upload, and drag-drop them into the relevant album in the right hand window.

Keep going with any other pictures you may have to upload

Filezilla will automatically upload all your pictures to photobucket, you can monitor progress in the window at the bottom of the main Filezilla window.

Et voila, easy multiple image uploads to photobucket.

You can also do it the other way, so you can download loads of images from photobucket at once.

I don’t recomment you rename or delete images on photobucket using Filezilla, although you can physically do it, photobucket gets confused if you do, so you’ll have to use the photobucket web interface to do it.

Here it is in a picture



Enjoy

Seems pretty usefull, but rarely do you need to upload more then 20 pics at a time, and photobucket gives you the option to upload upto 20 pics at a time, so I'll stick to that

Thrush, this is true, but I find clicking on the button twenty times, then finding the right file, etc... a real pain in backside.

FileZilla makes it an absolute doddle, trust me

Also, if you didn't know, in photobucket, select multiple images then click on the "Generate HTML and IMG code" button



The window that appears contains all the text you need to paste in a post to make your images appear (handy if you want to show several pictures).
You can choose "IMG clickable thumbnails for message boards" for small pictures that people can click on, or, "IMG images for message boards" for full size pics in posts.



Note: you have other options for eBay and emails too
