    Is that why certain people can't see any photos on Pet Talk, though? I mean, you're saying some can access their accounts, and, some can't...and, then, you're saying you can see some pictures, but, not others. That's not really the problem some of the people are experiencing...unless I'm misunderstanding...that might be why people are still puzzled. Not because they didn't read your reply, but, maybe because they're experiencing a different scenario than what you're referring to...just a thought. I can see all of them fine, by the way.

    finn's mom, I don't know how familiar you are with the term "propogating", but when a website or server goes up or down, it might take awhile for the changes to be reflected world-wide since the change has to hit every server in every country, and that takes some time. It can take up to 72 hours sometimes.

    When you first purchase a domain name and "point" that domain to your hosting, it can take up to 72 hours for every server world wide to be updated with the change. So when some people visit it within that time, some will still see the old host while others will see the new host.

    I really don't know how to explain it, I mean, I know exactly what I'm talking about and that IS what is going on. It all has to do with servers being updated with the change from photobucket's servers being up or down, where you're located, etc.

    Cool, I don't really get it, and, it doesn't really make a difference to me, personally. But, the only reason I said anything is because the examples you gave of problems experienced from this happening weren't the problem that some of the people here were experiencing. That's all I was saying.

    Yeah it did; some said they couldn't view pictures or log into their accounts and others said they could, and that's because some servers are down while others are still up. lol.

    Ok, I was referring to the problem where certain people couldn't see any photos on Pet Talk or anywhere else if they were taken from Photobucket. lol
