|
|
Hi,
I am just going to insert a random picture link to a picture that I host on Photobucket. I have just had an email from them mentioning their new website, I copy/pasted a link from a picture to my browser and it worked. So was wondering as they now offer a free account if I can link to forums again. My pictures here seem to be working again.
There are loads of pop up adverts, but if that is the price to pay for a link, I will live with it...
I will try and delete this post, if I can't, Admin please delete
or...

You can see all photobucket photos, even if they have been blocked by PB, by using Chrome as your browser and installing the "Photobucket hotlink fix" extension. |

That's interesting info Pete, I was using Chrome when I could see them again. Will try Opera and see what happens. |

Chrome only shows them if you have that extension installed. |

No, I've not got that extension installed, but can still see the PB pictures... strange? |

Nice clean engine bay and interior. Looks really impressive. |

I have major problems with Photobucket. It's that slow my computer crashes.
It's a pity Facebook don't give us the option to link photos from our Facebook profiles to forum posts similar to how we do it with Photobucket. Would cut out all the popups and slow loading of Photobucket pages. |

Try Imgur instead. Photobucket is now absolutely useless.
If you don't mind paying a small subscription, ImageShack is excellent. |
