I just noticed its not just in photo bucket. Its any window I minimize.When I open another, the minimized one dissapears and the new one comes up and the old one is closed...

Instead of minimizing the window you want to post image in, have photobucket in your favorites or bookmarks and then go into favs, right click on photobucket and open in sepeate tab that way you will have two tabs to go back and forth with.

In photobucket you copy the photo link then you click on the gardenweb tab and paste the link where you want it in the post your making.

You should be able to open several tabs this way. But you should also be able to see your minimized windows in the lower panel or bar depending on the browser your using, Im not sure why its dissapearing on you but you could try the tab method thats what I've done for years. I use firefox exclusivelly so I'm not 100% sure if its the same w/IE or netscape.

I found the answer on another forum. Go to Internet Options,select "advanced" and un check the box that says "re use window when opening a new page". Im saving that tip fpr future reference!!

Whatever IE window you minimize will be used unless you open another IE window to use. Then the minimized one stays.
I learned to open another window after losing and cussing like what happened to you. (had to retype etc.)

Didn't know of the Options, uncheck thingy, so thank you for the info.
