Poss Photobucket fix now tested.

Found this on another site but have not tried it yet.

Lee

As you've seen a lot of the linked photos from Photobucket don't work.
This can be fixed by adding in

" ~original "

between the jpg and the [img]

This hack makes the images show again.

Between the beginning [img] or the ending [/ img]? BTW I signed up to pay for use at $5/month which is good until the end of 2018. I believe that option is no longer available.

Cool. To display how it should be done, I added a couple of spaces before/after IMG tags in your post to display the code.

I bailed out on Photobucket and signed up for a free Flickr account.

Yeah, Google stopped hotlinking when they dropped Picasa web albums.
Flickr is free and easy to link!!

The issue is that you invest all your time and effort into using one site, then they go freakin' crazy (PB) so then you use another hosting site (Goog) and then find out they don't link.

It's enough to drive you crazy.

And I agree with the previous poster that PB can kiss it! The site is terrible and it's virtually impossible to download an album. I have tons of photos there since around 2010 or so, maybe earlier.

Oh well, I'll find a cure.

Agreed. Screw them. They ruined a bunch of forums archives.
