    I use both these sites. Easy and quick. I am slowly transferring pictures over.

    Pretty sure this software version (dated vBulletin) doesn't support it.

    Okay.....keep getting the error you'll see in the Bugs and Glitches forum, but will try replying to this one last time.

    Got kicked out again....will make this my last attempt. Saved in Word so hopefully this works.


    So big issue is that we all want this functionality but problem is that this is an old version of vBulletin. I just don’t think it supports a lot of the picture functionality and other advanced features you see in newer software. I would caution Marc/Spink from moving to new versions of vBulletin without doing plenty of due dligience. A BC sportfishing forum did last year and it was an absolute mess with tons of data (threads) and pictures missing, poor functionality and bugs and slow just to name a few and the worst thing was NOBODY from vBull was there to help them out. ZIPPO for support.

    They made the tough decision to limp along with it and quickly find a new platform. I don’t think moving to the new one was cheap as they hired developers/data type guys to map everything over from vBull to Xenforo the new platform. That new platform…..is AWESOME. Everything people want to do with images is fully supported and you can put pics from any device right into a post/thread with no issues. Also can be tailored to accept larger files as so many pics are these days with the advancement of camera technology.
    The bad part…..it’s a big undertaking, one that would take plenty of prep to get ready for. Other bad part is it’s the dreaded change! Lots of tech savy folks will figure out new platforms quickly while taking 30 minutes to navigate, read the help sections etc. but others won't. Not sure if you’ve been around when Marc has upgraded software here but it ain’t pretty….I’ve seen a few in my days, hahaha.

    if vb didnt help that other place, then their licence is bunk. thats more what you pay for in these forum softwares. i own one also that just sit idle, they always helped me when i had issues,...and a valid licence

    I have no problems posting using the photobucket app and the full site in chrome browser on an s7. It was a bit glitchy a couple months back on my iPhone though.
    The only thing I like as much as trucks, is guns.

    It's not their license, they had been with vBull longer than HBC has been around and have upgraded a number of times. vBull had become "bull" as they were acquired early last year or late 2014 and if you do a bit of digging which the owners of the fishing site did they found all sorts of people talking about how the service had become the sh*ts.

    Someone from vBull was there and all about them upgrading.....when things went to sh*t.....nobody was to be found. I was one of the ones who helped them look at different forum software and ultimately test Xenforo with their data etc before they went live; these guys weren't dummies and one also worked in the tech world like I do.
