Photobucket P500 Fix

[jedex]

i thought i would let you know there is a fix which allows users to see the images and not the blocked P500 hosting image.



Its nice to be able to see the old threads in their glory again with origional images and not P500 error ones.


Add-ons can be found in the links below. (edit: links seem to link back to this thread so copy and paste them into your browser)

Hope this is of help to some users

Hi jedex Thanks for the heads up on this.
But,

If photobucket are wanting stupid money, people will go in droves for something like this until,

The people who make the embed programs decide to charge for their embed codes (which will happen).
The embed code supplied may be a cure for now but still "points" to images hosted on photobucket.
Photobucket could close them down, or the new companies may charge for their quick fix.

As far as I know, Photobucket still allows users to download their complete albums.
I would imagine a better fix would be to empty your photobucket account (aka download everything to your pc), and find another hosting service.

Google supplies 15gb space for free and is the only service so far to have 2 step authentication (embed on forum can be "messy" but I think worth it).
Flickr is easy for embedding 1tb of space free.

agree with the above,

but while this client side fix works its ideal for others to revive their threads and save images to another host and then change the links to keep their threds active with pictures before they are lost and the thread defunt.
