Just a thought, apologies if you already know, I learned the hard way If you have just set yourself up on PB, and don't want anyone linking onto your account to see all your other photo's loaded, make sure you lock your account. If you are wondering how we can go to your album, all we have to do is click on your photo, click on get the link, then we are on your album Hope this makes sense ? if not someone will come along and explain it better Update I have just been on someones account 22 pages of photo's to be seen including a personal scan ?? Off to now PM that person LOL

So sorry for stupid question but if you lock it people can still see the photo you put on the forum but not the rest of you album?? Is that correct?

gladys; I THINK, if you lock your Photobucket account nobody can see it but you. If you upload a picture from photobucket to the forum, people can click it and view it in your PB, but I don't think they can view anything else if you've put it as private.

Absolutely, but there is more than one box you need to mark as Private within your profile. Oh and also, once your photo is on PB ( then posted on here ) don't move or delete it in PB or the image will not show on here any more,

I just select 'private' on all my albums so no one else can see and they always show on the forum for me!

How do you lock PB up so that is safe, some of us are not that computer minded!! When you go into your library you'll find a dropdown entitled more at the top right, click on this and select edit settings at the bottom of the next pop up screen you should be able to put the album to private then save, and to make sure check all created albums have the lock next to them. If they don't then repeat the edit on each one. There may be a quicker way but thats how I did it. Hope this helps.

Other way is .... look far right see your USER NAME click on the drop down, Select USER SETTINGS Then select PRIVACY... Scroll all the way down to the bottom There you will see your 3 options to choose from Make all Public / Make all Password Protected / Make all Private Select and SAVE
