But I figured out that if you still have the link(s) to any of your old Photobucket accounts, you can open each photo one at a time, Right Click, Save As, and you can save an unmolested copy of your original pic without the dreaded "PHOTOBUCKET" overlay and fuzzyness that they once embedded. You can then upload them again to any of your fav-o-rite hosting sites. Just takes time if you have a Hunnert an Fourty Eleven pics like I do.
See you guys in about a year....

It’ll be well worth it.
I did this exercise 2 years back and uploaded them to fotki for a very affordable cost (of course, keeping all those files in folders on my backup drive).
The more time consuming part was fixing all of those links on our favorite forums.
I still get warnings from Photo B**** about my usage overage. And how to give them money to rectify the sitch.
And those then there’s those unfortunate Pinterest fans that linked to the now
watermarked low rez pics on PB

Definitely worth the time and effort ! If you break it up and do 15-20 pics at a time over a period of time it actually isn't to bad . I've been working with members over on the Car-Toons Board and since January we've replaced well over 600 missing pics !  Some time ago I started replacing missing photos here on CC2 but I see it was never finished . . . thanks for the reminder , it will be done as soon as I can !  |

I"m not really websavvy Paul, but I know how to do basic forum stuff...is it easy to just buy a domain like that and somehow upload the images in a way where they can be linked back here? Does someone do a good package deal that makes it simple?
