Lightbulb Overcome Photobucket's "3rd party" error

On your mobile phone, tablet, or computer, install Mozilla Firefox browser along with this add-on:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/and...obucket-fixer/

At this time, Google Chrome browser for mobile phones does not support any extensions, but on your tablet or other computer you can use:

It won't be long before Photobucket "fixes" this loophole as well.

My solution was to move all my photos to Imgur and replace all the links on my build threads, then delete my Photobucket account and include a nasty message with my deletion request.

if I try to transfer all my photos to Imgur, it would take a couple of days. But, I think it is worth it

I'll give it a try. Why is Photobucket blocking the pictures they hosted anyway?

The mobile Firefox fix works for me but use it as backup since I like chrome on my phone better.

They think they deserve money for a free service they gave for 15+ years. Or they weren't making enough off memberships and selling hard copies of your photos and whatnot they offered. So far I don't know anyone who is going to pay 400-500 a year to post pics. I mean come on that's one less crawler and parts a year. Lol

Exactly. Besides, Google Photos will backup all your pics for free.

Yeah, took me a few tries but I figured out how to use Google Photos for free photo hosting.

(I like to use my PC for posting so tapatalk isn't the first solution that springs to mind.)
