I have noticed a lot of threads have the photobucket pictures are now missing the pic's. Anyone that wants to have their pictures restored, please message me so i can get these pic's from you, and will add them to my public Pinterest website, so they can be added back to the thread you created or answered to.
We need a storage place for all the boards pic's and i will pay, if need be, to have a central place for them. I may even start my own server for this if i can get a good price for hosting.

I think PhotoBucket has kind of come to their senses and have a $99 a year fee. I have not looked in to it yet.
Update 9:24 PM 8/13/17 Looks like to get 3rd party hosting it is still $399 a year.

Photobucket decided to charge for third party hosting. Basically holding your pictures for ransom. I told them to FO. I deleted every single one of my pictures on my account, then terminated it rather than pay their ransom.

I was on a Mopar (Chrysler) forum and the host site where most of the members used was hacked, I had about 150 photos of a Dodge Dart build on it. The hackers replaced all the peoples pictures with graphic violence pictures of mangled bodies and such. It took about 3 weeks for the Admin to open up editing of old posts and another 2 weeks before all the pictures were replaced. Most older members pictures were just deleted by the Admin due to inactivity of the member....

A "HACK" that may work for a time. It is a lot of work. You will need to add ~original to every picture that BhotoBucket had locked. I have found a down and dirty fix for PhotoBuckets RANSOM. I could not get about 4 of Liteways pictures to come back up. Now Liteway needs to copy any of the 10 pages of photos and keep them as a backup. The "HACK" may work for a while until PB figures it out. This is all done in BBCode. Here's what I did. I had to put a "RETURN" in the links below to bust the link so they would not show the pictures: Old Link [img src=" (Return added here to break link)i1291.photobucket.com/albums/b560/dufffus/e9a80695-5ddc-48b5-936d-bb720bd78136_zpsmbthhmvu. jpg" style="max-width:100%;"]  New link [img src=" (Return added here to break link)i1291.photobucket.com/albums/b560/dufffus/e9a80695-5ddc-48b5-936d-bb720bd78136_zpsmbthhmvu. jpg~original" style="max-width:100%;"] EG, replace the .jpg" with ".jpg~original" |

I tried the Hack on stretchmobileski's photos and it does not work. But his pictures have a different PB photo. Like his account at PhotoBucket was erased.
Also IF you see a PhotoBucket Ransom picture on one of your threads, PM the member and see if they can edit the picture. If that does not work, PM me, as Admin I may be able to edit it.
