Might want to sticky this for all the Photobucket people, but there is a work around for the Photobucket links. If you add "~original" after ".jpg" on your image tags, the picture shows up again. You will need to ".jpg~original" for every image.

Is there a way to edit the photo link in the original post to add the .jpg~original or do you have to repost the photo again?

Two things;

1). If the ~original link fix works, than a savvy site admin could bulk update all of the photobucket links with a simple MySQL query (or whatever database is in use by a particular forum).

2). If photobucket are hellbent on putting a stop to hot-linking, they'll do something about the ~original workaround pretty quickly.

How do you do the "original" trick if you cant edit your own old posts here?

Something tells me "~original" is just an IT fall back that will be removed in the short future.

I bet they implemented a new system and when using "~original" you're connecting to the old system that is probably slated for decommission.
