Hey all, wondering what people are using to host photos after what photo bucket have stupidly done.
Noone pays for shit like that, so all they have done is virtually guarantee that everyone using that service will talk with their feet. I for one will no longer use them. What are people using these days?

Cheers,
Ben

MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. To be stripped and scrapped in time.

Some people will hang around because they have so many photos hosted with Photobucket and cannot be bothered transferring it all to another provider; I had about 150 photos and it literally took almost an entire day to have it all combined into a single downloadable file and even then it kept bugging out on me.

Imgur is the way to go for the time being at least. Otherwise you are better off getting your own personal hosting.

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

I can't be stuffed removing everything. I never delete stuff on my main Pc, so I have copies of everything on photo bucket anyways. I'll just reupload it to the new provider. Seems like imgur is the way to go. My old build threads can stay with photo bucket, but the new thread thats about to start in a week or so will be through imgur.

Cheers for the advice!

Tell me about it.

I spent like an hour or so changing the URLs of all the photos I had taken in my build topic here on SubyClub as well as club.liberty.

Which is very much appreciated by future travellers I can assure you! Especially for related pics in any tech or DIY threads.

In the meantime, for those such as myself that are after photos from the threads that are yet to be fixed/updated, here is a list of browser extensions/add-ons for Chrome/Firefox that circumvent the block:

https://chrome.googl...ngiikdkpmcpkaon - [By Jesse Evers] - Currently working

https://chrome.googl...pbifiaedg?hl=en - [By bridgetroll.io] - Currently not working

https://chrome.googl...nflicjjgj?hl=en - [By kzahelg] - Currently not working

https://addons.mozil...tobucket-fixer/ - [By jlevers] - Currently working

https://addons.mozil...hotobucket-fix/ - [By BridgeTroll] - Currently not working

https://addons.mozil...t-embedded-fix/ - [Foldor] - Currently not working

Keep in mind that photobucket will keep trying to patch these workarounds, so they may not work until the developer has updated their extension/add-on. You will need to clear your browser cache and refresh the page for the images to load.
