I don't bother to go onto the photbucket website anymore so is there a way of transferring all the photos I have on there back to my computer in one easy go?

Unfortunately not - the best you can do is download them by folder, but even then there appears to be a restriction - I've tried to download a folder containing 300 images and it keeps timing out.

I tried downloading a folder and had the same problem. When I tried downloading one at a time, Photobucket will now only let me download the photos in my library that haven't been placed on 3rd party websites. All the others are locked pending payment of the ransom. Luckily I kept my own copies of all the ones on photobucket.

Oh well they can keep them, I don't want to spend too much time doing that! Thanks for letting me know. :thumbsup:

That's nothing new though - it took me about a week to download all my albums, and anything with about more than 20 in took multiple attempts.
