As I said, the eStarling ImpactV comes with the ability to sync your SeeFrame account to your Photobucket/Flickr/Picassa/Facebook RSS feeds, and so on.
I only have an account with Photobucket, so mainly this was what I went to work with next. Without any directions whatsoever, I was once again on my own when it came to hooking the frame up to work with PhotoBucket.
I was able to find the Photobucket tab in the top tab labeled Subscribe. I clicked on the Photobucket tab. Once clicked, a small link shows that reads, “If you want to get photos from/to Photobucket click here.” I clicked on the small link, where a window popped up asking me for my user name and password on Photobucket.
It took quite some time for my photos to make their way to my SeeFrame account, but lo and behold, it did work...well...sort of.
After 688 photos made it to the SeeFrame site, the other 400 or so decided to stay behind on Photobucket. Why they failed to load to the SeeFrame site still boggles my mind.
Photos uploaded to SeeFrame directly from the PC are also supposed to automatically make a copy and store it on Photobucket as well. This feature has never worked for me. When I upload pictures from the PC on to the SeeFrame site, a copy is never stored into Photobucket for me. They are supposed to, but the feature is obviously flawed.
Although I encountered flaws from the very get-go, as soon as I had photos playing on the eStarling ImpactV I was happy at how nice they all looked on the 8 inch LCD screen. The photos were all rich in color, with a tight, sharp clarity to them that I loved.
Directly on the frame I was also able to adjust the screen’s settings for the perfect overall image quality. Frankly, though, the images looked so flawless that I never had the need to go into the settings to mess with any of them.
