Instructions For Uploading Your Personal Photos!

Overview: The following tutorial is a step by step guide on how to upload multiple images into your account using the main Photobucket uploader.

Requirements: You must be a Photobucket account holder. You must be using a web browser that supports javascript and has javascript enabled. You can enable javascript in your browser's settings/preferences/options.

Steps to Take:

1. Log into our Photobucket account at http://www.photobucket.com. Use the below username and password.
   
2. From the navigation bar at the top of your album, select the "albums & upload" tab.
   
3. Navigate to the album you would like to upload your images into. From the upload panel, click on the "images from my PC" tab.

   Note: This process is the same for both Mac and PC computers, but the tab will say 'images from my mac' on a Macintosh.
   

4. You can set your "max image size" for your upload by clicking on the "options" link. You can do this either before you browse for an image, or after.

   Note: You can also choose to "Scramble" your filenames from here and enable or disable tagging after upload as well.

5. Browse your computer for the files you want to upload.

   Note: Make sure the filename does not have any special characters such as ( / * , ‘ …etc.
   

6. Double click on the image you would like to upload, or select the "Open" button with the image highlighted.

   Note: Supported image file types are jpg, jpeg, gif, png, bmp (bmp will convert to jpg on upload) and swf files. SWF files can currently only be uploaded as an image if you are a PRO user.
   

7. The "click to add title" field will let you add a description or title to your images. This will display above the images in your album and will be accessible with Photobucket "Search" if your account is set to public.

   Selecting the "remove" link will remove the image from the upload panel. If you would like to choose a different image, click remove.

8. Repeat Steps #5-7 in order to upload additional images at a time.
9. Click on the "add more" link if you would like to increase your uploading capacity to up to 20 images at a time.
10. Click on the 'Upload' button when you are ready to proceed. This will start the uploading process for your images.
    
11. The progress meter will be enabled as your images begin to upload. This may take longer depending on the size of your images, the amount of images being uploaded and the speed of your internet connection.
    
12. When the images have successfully been uploaded, a message will appear at the top of your page that says "X of X images have uploaded!"
