Getting around the Photobucket curse

impmann

I don't know if anyone has posted this before but you can download plug ins that by pass the Photobucket display block - it was posted on another forum I'm a member of and many are having success. I've not seen it on here, so I just thought I'd spread the love and all that...

For Google Chrome users try:

Firefox users try:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefo ... x/?src=api

I'm not a computer whizz... far from it but the Firefox one worked for me. :-)

Sorry no other info about other browsers... hope that helps!!

That link also contains a chrome user fix, which I've been using on other sites with success.

Nice one @impmann

You can, apparently also get around this by appending "~original" to the image URL.

Have you tried just using Imgur instead?

I personally use Google, but thought the "~original" tip was worth sharing.
