Why am I seeing this (you may see a driveshaft I guess) in some threads recently? Obviously I'm not a Photobucket user so all I see is an image telling me to upgrade my Photobucket account.

I think the message is aimed at the account holder, if you don't pay, any pictures you share are replaced with the message.

Nope,
presumably the same as you, a message saying "update your account to enable 3rd party hosting". Don't know whether existing photo bucket users can.

No they're blocking all third party linking on most accounts

I am seeing this on many threads now, making the forum rather pointless :(

Photobucket's decision - it's ruined resources worldwide.

Have to use alternative hosts now or Tapatalk

I doubt they'll revert their decision

I settled on Flickr some years ago because it's easier to use and it presents photos better. I never understood why photobucket was popular, but I've been Apple since 2006 and it and Flickr seem linked.

Is this what you meant to show? ;)

When you view your DropBox image, right-click and select 'copy image address'. Paste that into the DDK reply box and add the IMG tags either side of it...
