If you have already made an avatar on Photobucket, they will still remain in your albums so you can share them wherever you like.
Do you have happy memories of scavenger hunts, where you had to find red ribbon, a q-tip, and a mystery paperback book (or whatever -- you remember what we mean) -- all in the space of a couple of hours? We do. We love scavenger hunts.
So we decided to try one on Photobucket, in collaboration with the folks who are bringing you the new movie Quarantine.
Go here: http://photobucket.com/quarantine
You have to try to find images from the movie Quarantine. If you do, you can click on them and then enter a contest to win some cool prizes. Simple and fun.
Just the way we like it.
We love Whateverlife.com. Not only because it's a great story about a smart girl (AshBo) who started Whateverlife when she was 14 years old -- and continues to work on the site today 4 years later. But also because it's a cool site!
Every day there's something new to read and get. There are super cool layouts for your profile. There are also useful tutorials on how to do stuff. And lots more.
We're pleased that lots of Photobucket users go to Whateverlife -- you can log into Photobucket directly on the site and get the code for your photos to use on Whateverlife.
So shout outs to our friends at Whateverlife! Keep up the great work!

It's October 1st, and thoughts turn to Halloween. Scrapbooks make a great party invitation and a great scene-setter on your profile. And there are loads of styles to choose from.
