I just found this on another forum and had to pass it on.

If you're using Google Chrome, go to the three dots on the right side of the screen and click them. A drop down should appear. Hover your mouse over "More Tools," and when the next drop down appears, click on extensions. Go to the link towards the bottom that says "Get more extensions." In the search box, type "Photobucket Fix," and hit enter. Click the install button and once it's done, you should be able to see photobucket pictures again.

For FireFox users, click on the three bars on the right side of the screen, then click on add ons. Click search for "photobucket hotlink" and click install. Same result.

I have tried this and it works. You will be able to see all those dead links to photos again

thank you

that's great info, Derek. Thanks for posting it!

That is good news, lot of pictures available again.
I am using the Opera browser and they have also a similar extension available.
I have however always used imageshack as my picture storage and they have the same policy as photobucket and I haven`t found anything available to make the pictures visible yet.
