Since Photobucket decided to start charging $400/year for 3rd party hosting, they basically broke the internet. https://www.dpreview.com/news/687574653 ... s-of-users

While the images are still available to view, you need to access them directly through their site. To do this, you'll need to copy and paste the address in your browser like this:

A good alternative to Photobucket is Imgur: How to Post Pictures with Imgur - Step by Step Guidlines

*edit* I just discovered that if you put a "th_" in front of the file name it will display a thumbnail of the image instead of the broken link image. This would be easier than rehosting and relinking, but you still need to open the larger image by clicking "Open image in new tab".

Code:

For all of you who are sick of seeing this in every thread.

There is now a plugin for Firefox and Chrome to allow you to see pictures again.
Firefox users go here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/photobucket-embedded-fix/?src=api
Chrome users go here https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/photobucket-embed-fix/naolkcpnnlofnnghnmfegnfnflicjjgj?hl=en
Firefox for Android here https://addons.mozilla.org/nn-NO/android/addon/photobucket-embedded-fix/

Has anyone figured out a plug-in for Chrome on Android? The plug-ins all have buttons to add to my desktop. Doing so does not fix it on my tablet.
