    That was really unpleasant...
    The photographer formerly known as EOSThree here. I had to create a new account. I was having trouble logging into my Photobucket account, so I checked my password manager to see what was going on, well there were somehow 3 accounts for Photobucket there. I decided I would delete the two that weren't correct and I hit the delete all button... Now I can't remember half of the passwords I had stored in there. What a mess. I am now locked out of a bunch of password protected sites, including this one as EOSThree. Oh well, hopefully I can figure out how to restore them.

    Ugh, I hate when that happens! I always keep a backup screenshot of all my passwords from the PW manager on a separate external hard drive that I don't normally use, just in case :)

    Do one better. Get a small notebook and WRITE them down.

    I'm not sure about here, but generally when you try to log in to a site, the option to be sent a new password is right below where the password would normally go. Usually says something like "Lost Password"? Once selected, the site "should" send a new temporary password to the registered email address. Good luck.

    Yes, Photography Review can email to your 'current' email account a new password.

    I've had to do that a time or two as a result of being on the road and/or having a new computer with me and wanting to log in. Then of course you can change it.

    I sent an email asking for that very thing and haven't heard yet, hopefully John will get my mail and send it.
