Photobucket is one of the best and widely used service. Now it’s possible to upload images directly from Firefox to your Photobucket Account.

All you need is a simple Firefox extension.

Photobucket Uploader is a simple extension for Firefox that allows a user to right-click on an image that appears on a web page and upload it directly to their Photobucket account.

You can get this extension from here

If you see any sort of problem while doing the upload or find some blank images in the Photobucket Account, than please remember following points:

  • Photobucket API does not support uploading images from a secure URL (https://)
  • If you see a Blank image in your account than this is because some websites overlay transparent images on top of their actual images to prevent the user from saving them. The YouTube logo is a perfect example.
  • Finally, this extension is only capable of saving images that are embedded on the page with an IMG tag. CSS background images will not work.

Apart from above, the extension will work fine with almost all Webpage Images without any problem.

So Start Uploading Images to Photobucket account directly from Firefox.
