Photobucket links gone - use imgbb instead

Post by Dermot Higgins »

You may or may not be aware but Photobucket (image hosting site) which a lot of our members use to host photos has changed their terms and conditions and no longer allow the linking of images on forums such as this one. They now charge $399 per year to allow this. So I've had to download all of my albums from Photobucket and find alternative photo sharing sites.

The one I have found is imgbb (https://ibb.co/) and it provides the embed codes also.

I'm currently putting my photos on this site and will update all the links I can find to my photos on the forum as soon as I can. All photos from events and runs, trips etc have been replaced by Photobucket with notifications.

I've started with my photos from Dronten 2011.

Most of my photos of events have been updated so you'll still be able to see them.
