Wow, that photobucket bandwidth exceeded button really takes me back...

Who knew they had photobucket in the '40s?

Absolutely. Photobucketol should be in everyone's medicine chest.

I believe the "redirect URL" is what photobucket is using to determine bandwidth limits, so direct links won't work. Cut and paste the URLs directly. Here they are, first set.

An additional trick is to save this page as your own HTML file (Save Target As..., for example), load it up in a new browser, and click on the year links from my previous posts. Voila.

bandwidth exceeded?

I'm lost with this

But the first pic yesterday was way cool

Better bet is to right click, save link location, and paste link into address bar...

This does not work (at least not for me). The only thing the works nicely (for me) is my original suggestion of saving this page's HTML.

Gah. This seems all-too-tedious for the sake of viewing some vintage ads. Truly, for true!
