I, like many others, have had topics ruined by PhotoBucket's recent ransom demand for $400 to allow links to hosted photos to be displayed.
THERE IS NOW A SOLUTION IF YOU USE CHROME OR FIREFOX BROWSERS!! :13:
Some clever person has made extensions that makes links work again for all the pages you view!
CHROME:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/photobucket-embed-fix/naolkcpnnlofnnghnmfegnfnflicjjgj
FIREFOX:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/photobucket-embedded-fix/?src=search
You may have to clear your browser cache if you've previously viewed page and seen the Error graphic.
Just click on the "Add to Chrome/Firefox" button on the links above.
I have tested the Chrome extension and it works :13: :13: :13: :13:
My previously ruined topics now display the PhotoBucket photos as before!! I've checked a few threads/topics on the MRC Forum and it all seems fine :)
I have to thank "wiggles" on the RX-8 OC forum for discovering this fix :sign0098:
Thanks! Just did Chrome extension, hopefully it works :)
If you can see this pic then it worked!
If not, try clearing cache on your browser :13:
Regretfully, Photobucket may still chnage things at their end to break the links again, but hopefully the clever guys out there will be able to keep doing workarounds :)

Umm... I did that allready, but can see that photo...?
Have you cleared your browser cache?
It worked straight away for me, using Chrome on my PC :13:
Yes I did...
But now it works! ;D
Spoke too soon guys?
90% of Photobucket photo links seem to work OK (so a great improvement), but others (mostly in 2016/17 posts) now work only intermittently.
The photo I posted just above up above displayed fine for a few days in my browser, but now doesn't display :angry5:
