So I was uploading the latest adventures with "Frank" (my OBS engine prep for install in "Stinky"), and a warning popped up that said I had reached my upload limit. I had to go through my non-truck album and delete a bunch of photos to make room for Frank. I will hit this wall again soon, because Frank has a long way to go.
I can use my best judgement as to what needs to be stripped out of my albums, but images in some of my old posts will be duds soon. I'll avoid killing images still very much relevant.

Photobucket my man....since one of the "upgrades" to the FTE, I can't even find any of my albums I had here, I went with a free photobucket account years ago, it works very well, provides coding to post pics much easier than this site. just my $.02

This is what I use as well. Have had Photobucket for about 10 years. I hate how glitchy the Photobucket site can be, but it still works and does what it should.
Buy a external hard drive. They are cheap. You should be using one anyway to back up your computer in case it crashes. You can create a folder for photos.

Rikster-7700 covered the feedback. While it would be nice to link to my hard drive, that would mean my stuff would show only when my computer was up and online. I have Dropbox and plenty of hard drive storage with backups, but here's where my head is: Photobucket is nice, but how many times have we looked at old threads with dead photo/video links - making the post useless? Except for the videos, my stuff is here - where it can still be used if I were to fall off the planet.

Valid point here Rich. I have posted hundreds of pictures in threads on all of the forums. If I delete my Photobucket account, all the pics will be dead. That is why I never intend to delete my Photobucket account, even if I get out of this sport/hobby/field/market. It is free to have a PB account, so I see no reason to delete it.
Dead photo links is what has driven me to create PDF's and post them when I find good write-ups (when I have the time). That way, they are in FTE and don't depend upon me at all.
Maybe it was a per-session upload limit... but I cleared some photos in the same session and I was able to finish the upload. I'll have a load soon, I'll catch a screenshot if there's a repeat.
