I have always found Tapatalk to be utterly useless but I do tend to use my ipad rather than iphone so maybe that's the reason.

TRF and KTM forums will be a pain to use then so it looks like flikr (I thought that was a dating website).

Thanks for the info.
Tapatalk and TRF forum I find easy to upload images
I upload direct to the forums now from either iPhone or laptop and don't bother with 3rd party hosting sites

I fully agree about the photo uploading.
It's the actual forum viewing set up I don't like. Maybe I can tweak it but I have never been bothered. I only use a PC or Ipad, never bothered with the phone for viewing.

I've very recently transferred links (URL) for my Honda NX250 add and will concur that it still seems to be working ok--although I agree that getting through all the popups and adds is a pain.

Chris, i got an advert blocker that someone recommended on an earlier post about PB problems and it has transformed the PB experience

I use chrome on my laptop and added https://www.ublock.org/

As i am typing this reply it has only blocked 1 x advert but after opening another tab it went up to 3 blocked, i then loaded PB and it shot up to 27 ads blocked

PB works as it used to for me now (thumbs)

Bucket have finally blocked all my links also so I need to go another route now--I'm not paying $39 a month for what is a cumbersome service anyway!

Can someone try this extension of Google Chrome and report back to see if it works please?
I've tried it on Mac to no avail. It's supposed to allow the mages to be seen.
