That depends.

1) Photobucket TOS says Note: Pornograpy, nudity and offensive pictures are prohibited , so if they find out, they'll clamp down on it.
2) 1,500 MB monthly bandwidth, 25 MB disk space, and 250K max image size they say.

So ... let's imagine a post of say 10 images at 100k each. That's 1MB per unique (new) user viewing. Get a few hundred users.. say 200. That means you'd only get about 5-7 posts worth at 1MB of pictures posted, anda few hundred people looking per month.

It all depends on how many viewers you have (can't control), what picture size posts you have (bigger picture posts = faster runs out), and what be what Photobucket considers 'offensive'

Sorry about that, Version 2! drasca January 27 2005, 22:13:52 UTC
Oh... Sorry. I'll simplify it:

Things that make photobucket account run out:
Posting Large pictures
Posting lots of pictures
Posting often, and in many communities
Posts not behind LJ-cut
Posting nudes / adult / stuff photobucket considers bad

Things you can do to stretch the account:
Post smaller pictures
Post behind LJ-cut
Post fewer pictures
Post less often

So, you get a certain amount every month---but don't worry too much about it unless its naked stuff photobucket doesn't approve of. Then, photobucket might delete your account.

Is that better?

If you donate a few pounds they'll up your limit. That's what I do.

You mean how much more space would you get? I don't know, I've never gotten too technical about it and I've been uploading without any trouble.

When you log in there should be a link that says something like "Upgrade to premium accout" that tells you exactly what you get with the paid account.
