Some time ago, Photobucket made all of their pictures disappear from forums. That means that here, many of the pictures in the archives were lost, as well as people's avatars, signature pics, etc. Well, there is an easy way to fix that. You download a simple little extension, and like magic, they come back. You must be using either Firefox or Chrome browser... there is no fix I can find for IE... But if you're still using IE, you really need to upgrade to a better browser anyways, lol.

For Firefox users: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/photobucket-fix/?src=api&hotlinkfix=1516284990375 Go that link, and click Add to Firefox. Then Add. Then OK. All done.

For Chrome Users: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/photobucket-hotlink-fix/kegnjbncdcliihbemealioapbifiaedg Go that link, and click Add to Chrome. Then click Add Extension. All done.

I use Chrome so I gave it a try. I can see pictures where the notice used to be.

It is pretty straight forward. Just follow the instructions above if you use Firefox or Chrome.

It will only fix the problem if the pictures still exist in photobucket. I deleted all of my photobucket pis and then deleted my account so pics I posted using photobucket are gone.

The fix only works for your computer. If anyone else wants to see the pics they have to do the fix as well.

Yes, that's an issue. It won't help anyone not reading this thread. Also you got to do the fix on every computer you use that has Photobucket links.
