Multiple Images - OLD UPLOADER


Overview: The following tutorial explains how to upload multiple images into your account using the old 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, or refer to the blog post here for instructions.Steps to Take:

1. Open the Photobucket site at http://www.photobucket.com
   Enter your username and password at the top of the page, then click the log in button to log into your Photobucket account.
   
2. Select the albums & upload button from the menu at the top of your album.
   
   
3. Navigate to the album you would like to upload your images into. From the upload panel, click on the "old uploader" link.
   Note: If you are already using the old uploader, this step will not apply to you.
   
   
4. Click on the "images from my PC/mac" tab. You can set the "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 as well.
   
5. Browse your computer for the file 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!"
    
    
13. Your images are now available in your Photobucket account for sharing and linking around the web!
