How do i get all my pics off Photobucket?

I've been storing my photo's on Photobucket for many years now as i find it an easy way to download pics and then send them to friends and family.
Problem is its almost impossible to show friends and family a large amount of photo's of a recent trip with out dragging a lap top around with me, what i'd like to do is get normal photographic reprints of many of my pictures but i have no idea how to do that due to an extreme mental dysfunction in understanding computers,As an example the book computers for dummies doesnt quite reach my level of understanding,i need the book before that..
Ideas would be appreciated..
Jim

Go to Photobucket library and select the picture you want to print. Place your cursor on the photo, then right click with your mouse and select "Save Image As...", you will then receive a screen that appears similar to a set of file folders, the photo name (actually will be in a box at the bottom and will look like "catnip_globalissues_zpsb768a551&quot , you can also rename the file.

You may want to set up separate and organize libraries in Windows by right clicking the Windows icon (the red, green, yellow and blue) and selecting "Open Windows Explorer", then the button to create "New Library".

This will enable the specific pictures you desire to either separate folders or libraries as you desire. I'm up for about 20 minutes more if you need further assistance.

Go to your library in Photobucket. At top is a button that says "More". Click on it and you should be able to download the entire album to your hard drive.

You may want to set up either a specific folder or library in Windows Explorer (right click on the Windows icon, select "Open Windows Explorer&quot to store all the pictures. Take notice of the location where you are downloading all the photos so you can locate them later.

Just make copies of the pics onto a disc or thumb drive and take that to a photography shop or printery.

I take it you did not save copies of the pics from the place on your puter you used to upload them ONTO Photobucket?
I save mine in a folder on the puter, just in case.

If your question is how you down load a copy from Photobucket, what I do is pick a thread here in DU, click on
"reply to a post" and use the blank post as a place to download the picture.
Then hit "preview" in the post. You will see the actual picture.
Then I use the mouse to copy the picture and paste it into a folder I have made on the desktop.
Naturally when you are done you just close the "reply to post" window without hitting "post my reply".

Photobucket has instructions on how to down load the pics.
but I closed my Photobucket account and don't remember all the options.

Hi Everyone,

This is Russ at Photobucket. I am part of our Community Outreach Team. I saw you asking about how to print your photos from Photobucket. That’s a great question.

Printing your photos is easy.

From your Photobucket account, click on “Library” and select “Print Photos” from the pull down menu.

Then select the photos you want and choose “Order Prints”

That’s it. Easy.

I hope this helps. Feel free to send me feedback, more questions, and recommendations for the site.

Thanks,

RUSS

I have so many pictures on there now, I have to scroll through a couple thousand of them to find what I'm looking for. Sounds like a good winter project now that our remodel is FINALLY done. Hullboss has been working hard while I've been in SoCal. I'll post some pics when I get home. He's done some gorgeous wood work.
