I hear you on the Photobucket thing. I have one account that I didn't switch over yet, so I still have 2 weeks of "old Photobucket" left before they force me to switch over. :/ New PB seems like it's going to be a real pain. I HATE that you can't hover over the thumbnails in album view to get the links without opening up a new window or popup any more! When my updates all have 70+ pictures, having to click open a new window/popup to get every single link is going to be SO ANNOYING. Grr.

It's super interesting to watch Jessa's Let's Play videos! It's so funny to see things that other simmers do differently. There are moments where I'm like "Oh, I never knew that!" and then there are moments where I'm like "No, Jessa, don't do it that way! There's a better way!" :P But I agree, it's so inspiring!

Do you have the "easy linking mode" turned on? That lets you have all the links (html, direct link and whatnot) under each picture in the album view. I think it's not enabled by default, so go to User settings > Albums and make sure you check the easy linking mode box and save settings ( ... )

Have you tried using the bulk linking? When in the album, click organize, select the images you want (shift/cntrl + click) then from the bottom bar select link. You will get the links to all the images and it's easy to edit them in notepad.

Mara: What basica functionality are you talking about that makes it easy to upload? I wonder have I been doing it the hard way. Usually after the bulk link I paste the links to notepad, then do a search and replace to replace the http word with

Ani: I mean being able to sort pictures by filename and custom sorting (dragging and dropping them how ever you want), and having pages in the folders instead of scrolling endlessly. Your method sounds really complicated :o I always just use bulk html-links. Then paste it to the html-window when making a new post in LJ/DW. You shouldn't have to do all that editing by hand.
How are the videos lagging? I didn't notice any lag when I watched them.
