Solution for Photobucket

Post by David » Sun Dec 10, 2017 7:08 am

When Photobucket changed their terms almost all photo's hosted with tem became invisible, unless the owner pays them a fortune. Luckily, there is a solution with these free extensions:

Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... x/?src=api

Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... nfo-dialog

These will make the previously posted photo's visible again, for free. Of course they will also work on other forums.

Thanks for sharing, David. This is great news for some of the members who have hundreds of pictures posted through Photobucket. Of course I already spent several hours re-posting all my pictures using SurfaceZero :roll:

The viewer needs those extensions to see any photos hosted on Photobucket by anyone again, it's not so that if the uploader has these extensions his pics are visible for everyone again.

In short, to see any photo uploaded to Photobucket (by yourself or others) before they changed their policy again you'll need to install one of those extensions.
