A while back, Photobucket disabled third-party hosting, and asked users to pony up $400/year for the privilege. Since I only use Photobucket for the purpose of third-party hosting the cost is not reasonable for me to subscribe. Now, there's an add-on fix that will enable hotlinking in Photobucket. The add-on extension is free and the images will continue loading in your browser (whether you personally use Photobucket or not). It works.

For the add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/photobucket-fix/?src=cb-dl-created#id=845147

Visit a photo thread such as the "Post a picture of your latest purchase (https://www.ar-15.co/threads/42773-Post-a-picture-of-your-latest-purchase/page377)" or the "Wildlife & Related (https://www.ar-15.co/threads/156339-Wildlife-amp-Related/page11)", to view the restored links.

You betcha, and thank you. I just installed it on my Surface Pro so I could view the superb Colt offered by mwmjones. It was a two second install. Good thing that the add-on is compatible with the upcoming version 57 of Firefox.
