Can anyone post sample code to upload pictures to PhotoBucket and get the link to that picture from the site? I downloaded PhotoBucketNET.dll, but there is no documentation that I can find to use it. I am using Visual Studio 2010 in VB.NET.

Hi there,

Here's an entire website of documentation on the PhotoBucket API:
http://photobucket.com/developer/[^]

Yes, well spotted, that is the PhotoBucket developers site! You should try searching for stuff like this. Most API's have documentation - as I learnt from writing my own C# Libraries for the Facebook, LinkedIn Twitter and PayPal API's - the documentation may not always be easy but most of the time, everything you need is there! Just search for it... You cannot expec us to give you an entire lesson on how to use the PhotoBucket API in one answer - they have a whole site for it!

Hope this helps,
Ed

(Also, you didn't say which PhotoBucketNET.dll - there could be many - you should cite your sources when posting in relation to a specific library/piece of code).

Edit: To aid the OP. Go to the site. Click "Read" under documentation. Do "View web format". It looks unhelpful inmitially - click on the Index tab in the bottom right corner of the web page - hey look! Everything you are looking for all nicely laid out with full details :) Whatever PhotoBucketNet library you are using will be structured and will function the way the documentation for the PhotoBucket API says it should.

This was the DLL I was referencing. When I go through the different classes and different docs on the left, it just all seems incomplete, so I seeing if anyone used it.

Yes that documentation is very incomplete (not surprising as it is open-source, free and not official). However, all the methods etc. that it supports will be the same as described in the PhotoBucketAPI and if you're lucky they'll have wrapped up some of the nasty bits for you. Since it claims to be open source - try finding the source and inspecting it/compare to PhotoBucket API documentation to see what it's doing.

Perhaps you begin to understand why I rolled my own for Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn - it was easier than using anything anyone had produced in March 2011. For those there may be proper .Net support now but I haven't checked.
