Rich i was seriously recommend you bin off Photobucket and use Imgur instead. Photobucket is a con now and no use for Forums.

We have had a massive issue with Photobucket now that they are charging stupid money to enable you to post on forums. Not just us but countless other forums. I have three build threads which have been basically turned upside down plus other threads i have done in other sections.

 

Deathrow our resident IT guru waved his magic wand over this forum to enable us to view threads which use photobucket but we now recommend using alternative hosting sites. I have gone over to Imgur, others use Flickr as well.

I think they look very good, Will you still get enough airflow for cooling?
