Photobucket fix?

[Jim W]

Saw this on another forum, and it seems to work, I like seeing the photos that were posted by everyone in the old threads, instead of the Photobucket nag.

In the cases where former/current PhotoBucket users haven't deleted or clobbered their collections, Chrome and Firefox now have (since August at least) plugins that will display 3rd party hosted images by fiddling with the referrer or some-such...entirely in the background without any user intervention.

Your link ain't working Jim.

I imagine most previous users, like me, cleaned out their account when they moved to another service.

That is what I did. I could not in good conscience leave any trace of supporting what I felt was highly questionable if not unethical approach to facilitating a change in policy.

Cool! It works, for now, until Photobucket catches on.

I just left my account to eat up their storage, I'll never click back in again.

A lot of my past photo postings (including some pics of guitars that I now own), were filched from other peoples' Photobucket pics,
over which I have no control.

It's often said that you need to be careful what you put online, because once something is "on the internet" it's there for ever.

That just so ain't so.

Me too. I don't care what might be done with any of my photos. If I did, I wouldn't have posted them for anyone to see and download.
I found a nice, easy to use image hosting service:
