Okeedokee, I use photobucket for all of my images on my Ebay store.. I also use photobucket for my MySpace page.. Anyhow because of MySpace I exceeded my bandwidth.. This was not terrible news because its cheap to become a photobucket Pro member and you get unlimited bandwidth.. So I did that.. Paid got the MySpace page back to normal, BUT now my Ebay store is all messed up.. None of my images are working and they are all covered in Photobucket Bandwidth Exceeded pictures instead of my images.. Push comes to shove I will just relist everything, but oh what a pain that will be.. I do have everything in TL, but still.. Anyone out there know about this or dealt with it before?

Did you have to reload the pics for your Myspace page?

Sorry....I was going to suggest reloading your eBay pics.
That is strange. You might try reloading 1 eBay pic to
see if it makes a difference.

Also might want to try just revising one of your eBay listings. Just change a word in the description, like changing the to the.

It might work, who knows.

May sound simple and mundane, but clear your cookies/cache and look again or have one of us look at one. Feel free to PM. This happened once to me and I was picking up the old page as it did not refesh.

I totally agree with the other posters. Don't RE-List as you will be paing fees for ending and re-listing!! Just revise your ads or change the photos. Or as the last member said, clear your cache and if that doesn't work, I am sure that one of us or a friend of yours would be happy to look at your ads on their computer to see if they see your photos differently. I have my computer set to see each login or page as "fresh" each time we log in. I clear my cache, cookies and temp files on a regular basis as well as shred my recycle bin with McAfee file shredder. I have just started using Photobucket within the past 2-3 months and am in the process of moving all of our photos off our computers to free up space. Thank you for your post. We all learn from others! I do hope your problem is soon solved. If none of these things work for you, there is a "Contact Us" button on the bottom of the Photobucket page; hopefully they have good Customer Support.

Here is how that problem was resolved.. I relist my auctions everyday from Turbo Lister so all I did was relist the listings for that day.. I think it was a Saturday when that problem occurred.. Once I relisted those listings somehow it kickstarted all of the pictures from photobucket... It wasnt the cache.. That was too simple of fix and one of the first things I tried.. I had also got a friend to look at them from his pc so I knew it was either on Photobuckets end or Ebays..

The funny thing is that I asked the folks at the Ebay forum for some help if anyone knew.. I can never get any real help from the people on Ebays forums when it comes to an original problem.. Sure you canfind answers to common things there, but when it comes to getting real answers about real problems, I just have no faith in them.. So I asked them what to do and I had a few tell me to just relist them all, that photobucket was garbage, yada, yada, yada... So anyhow I blasted them a new one and found the answer and told them they were as sorry as the "Live Help" which by the way, had no clue either and told me since it was the weekend I would have to wait until Monday to get help...
