Who Is Instagram?
WHO IS Photobucket?
Photobucket is an American image and video hosting platform.
WHAT THEY DO?
Photobucket hosts photos and videos for its customers. The users can then link to the content on different sites or blogs.
HOW THEY WORK?
Photobucket has a free plan, which offers storage of up to 250 images. However, the site has paid options with better offers, such as $5.99 a month for 2,500 images (25GB) and $12.99 a month for unlimited Image Hosting. Once you have an account, you can upload and display your photos on other Web sites by including a direct link. The site has photo and video album options.
BEST PRACTICE:
Add music to your slideshow presentations to make them more fun and interesting.
HTML full size is good to use for your animated images.

TIPS:
Simply use an easy to copy embed link to share your photos on your favorite sites and stop uploading the same picture over and over to multiple forums, websites, blogs, or online marketplaces.
Always choose the higher quality version when uploading your pictures. The default option has poor quality.
