That happened when I did the same and embedded lots of photos into eBay too! :lol: For eBay I use Postimage - I find it really good and gives nice "thumbnail" images too.

Or it should still work if you post a direct link to the picture - just PhotoBucket don't want it embedded...

That's quite annoying, might I suggest Imageshack or something.

NTL assure me that the webserver will actually have the 100Mb connection that I pay for very soon, rather than the ~18-20MB unstable nonsense that its been doing lately. So if they can manage to resolve those issues I'll look at increasing the storage size of photos on the site, you might then be able to post pics directly rather than having to use Photobucket, though I know its handier to use a remote host if you post on multiple forums, you can't win really...

I don't think it's a good idea to upload photos on this site. it will slow down your site and take considerable hdd space over time.
That's my opinion. ImageShack can do the job.

I tried imageshack, and it wasn't anywhere near as user friendly or intuitive as photobucket. So here goes with some attachments for those who didn't get to see the pics on photobucket.

Thanks for the suggestion Franklin, so here are the images on the postimage host:
