Problem with photobucket - any ideas please?

I have been using Photobucket and have always found it very straight forward with no hassle. Usually after I have written up the listing I go to the HTML tab next to the standard text tab and then click below the phrase ready to import picture. I find the photo held on my photobucket account and click on copy and then paste the picture in.

However this evening it is not as simple!! The text shown in the HTML box is all grouped together and not set out like the standard text and when I go to paste the photo copied from photobucket it just pastes a previously copied phrase and not the photobucket code as expected.

I would appreciate any help as I wish to add some more photos as I have found this helps with sales and saves cost of adding photos via EBay.


Thank you all in advance

    Keep clicking the links in photobucket until the actual photo is displayed (without any border). If you can only get to photo with photobucket border, right click on actual photo, properties and copy the link from there.

    Alternatively I think photos are free on ebay at present, even supersized, (according to others posts) so it may be easier to host direct on ebay.
