Topic: Firefox add-ons to bypass Photo Bucket problems

[Allan L]

Since earlier this year Photo Bucket appears to have put people's images behind a paywall so in place of an image you get a silly message.

There are two extensions for Firefox called 'Photobucket Hotlink Fix' and photobucket embed fix, the latter also available for Chrome and there may be a"fix" for other systems. It appears that they somehow bypass or spoof the paywall, so you can at least see existing images if your browser has had the "fix"

The direct links are:
