See the hot top 10 Album Themes on Photobucket

It's been almost a month since we launched Album Themes on Photobucket.  So it's neat to see which themes have become the most popular since launch.

You may have noticed that if you hold your mouse over an Album Theme thumbnail, it'll tell you how many people have used that theme.  There are still some "classic" styles from pre-Themes days. (You used to be able to just change the background color of your album -- those are considered Classic Themes.)

But now, Pink Diamonds is the second most popular Theme, after boring plain white. So let's get those boring white albums out!

Here are the top 10 custom Album Themes

If you click the links below, you'll get to see what they look like in your Album. (Don't worry, you can back out any time if you don't like them. But we think you will.)

Make desktop background collages on Photobucket

We were watching a rather clever Photobucket user at work last night. She was using the built-in scrapbook tool on Photobucket to make a collage for her laptop desktop background picture.

We liked the idea so much, we wanted to share it with you too!

Go into the scrapbook tool -- click "scrapbooks" in the top menu bar.

Play with different backgrounds, stickers, themes. If you don't like any of the built-in themes, start with something blank. Be sure to choose "get stickers" and "get backgrounds" to get lots and lots of new stuff.

There are hundreds of stickers to play with! Our Photobucket user thought they were really fun.

Drag and drop pics of your favorite things onto the page.

Background Image

Just save one page (you can delete the others).

In Photobucket, you'll see a static JPG of the collage saved in its own album inside your account.  Use that JPG as your desktop background. It looks great!
