Photobucket pictures missing from posts on the forum

[normski2]

I've noticed many pictures, that were linked from Photobucket, have been erased. This is down to Photobucket taking a rather draconian action to basically ransom members into buying memberships to allow their photos to be visible. Some posts may well get corrected over time, many are not...it can be a fair bit of hassle to correct, or the poster may have subsequently left the forum altogether.

When they get wiped you see this.

I discovered a fix for this a while ago and it does indeed seem to completely fix it! I've been using it for over a week (on Google Chrome) and every photo has been visible wherever I've checked thus far. Go here and add the extension if you're using Google chrome.

There is a fix for Firefox as well and no doubt others too.

Apologies if this fix has already been posted. I have not seen it on this site thus far.
