Montyb82 0 Posted September 5, 2017 OK no doubt a complete noob question, potentially wrong place to ask so apologies in advance! A cursory google check didn't help much so asking you guys! Why can I not see any pics that are photobucket? It's annoying as hell when you want to see how good a rep received from a TD? Thanks in advance for any sensible responses!

greg_r 81 Posted September 5, 2017 Photobucket recently changed their hosting terms. They no longer allow hotlinking unless you pay 'em $400 a year. Needless to say, this has screwed up posts on an awful lot of forums... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KarmaToBurn 1,419 Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) Anybody know if there's a way to download complete albums from Photobucket? I want to move everything over to another host but don't want to do it one at a time. Edit: Nevermind. I found the "Download Album" button.

BadPickle 2,738 Posted September 5, 2017 There's a download album button Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
black263 228 Posted September 5, 2017 I tried the download album, but it failed. When I contacted Botofucket, they said it was a know fault, and the only workround was to download each image individually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Use this: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/photobucket-album-downloa/jmpbbfglflhdhbmimlcacoojpkeopelc?hl=en It costs about five bucks and its worth its weight in gold. 4 hours ago, 4pekatt said: Photobucket merely wanted to change their focus from private freeloaders like us, to giants like eBay and Twitter. That doesn't make sense mate. Neither eBay or Twitter upload photos to PB, little users of those services do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monkey_Business 0 Posted September 6, 2017 That's not what I meant. Of course the users don't upload pictures on photobucket, and post them on twitter. However, Twitter and eBay has their pictures hosted externally. 80% of Photobucket's storage capacity went to hosting sites like this last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worked like a dream, and all my pics are now on Postimage. Great link. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
