NO MORE PHOTOBUCKET RED X'S,and it won't cost you a dime!

I posted this under the Questions & Suggestions yesterday but realized this would be seen by more members and help solve a problem created by photobucket.

A friend of mine who is a lot more computer savvy than me and not a hamb member was looking at Quain Stott's Moonlighter thread and was telling me how great it was and I told him he should have seen it before photo bucket screwed it up by blocking the photos and he told me there are a couple of browser add ons to restore the photos....and he was right,after I installed the appropriate addon I was viewing a lot of photos the were previously red X's.

Possibly a lot of you guys already know about this but it's new to me.

For you guys that don't this will restore the photo's and make the threads a lot more enjoyable. HRP

Thanx for that

Just my 3.5 cents

Live Learn & Die a Fool

 

With this addon no one has to pay ransom to see photos on all great past threads. HRP

 

I just tried that ...........now instead of the photobucket logo, I get

 

The addons only work with the photobucket images,there are also red X's that have been posted by members who have posted from their PC's and this addon won't cure that.

Who is your IP? HRP

 

BTW,There are some members that have deleted their photobucket accounts and there is nothing in the world that will help with those. HRP

 

Click on the p icon on the top right of your tool bar and then go to manage extensions and make sure you have the allow in incognito checked or it won't work.

 

I just went back ( in Google Chrome ) and tried it again on my old thread about the restoration of the Carrillo roadster............played with the add on but still nothing in the way of pictures

 

I know the google is a little more complicated. HRP

 

Did you clean out your browsers cache?

I couldn't find the thread you are referring too but I did check out your thread below and all your photobucket photos are now back. HRP

Pics from the Ocean city 2008 Show

 

this is the thread I was talking about
https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/details-you-dont-normally-see.502186/

 

and it still doesn't work

 

Pictures are all there for me must be something on your end. Not meaning to treat you like an idiot but you have clicked the allow in incognito and cleared your cache?

 

I see all the photos also. HRP

 

Does this mean each user has to install it, or just the OP? The add-in link for FF wasn't clear.

 

I just went through the entire process again.............cleared all cache, made sure the incognito was clicked.............even tried on another site that I had a build thread on.......still nothing. I may have already spent more time on it than it is worth............thanks for all the help and suggestions.........I appreciate it

 

You have to install it on your PC. HRP

 

I'm not a PC guru,I hope someone with more smarts will chime in and think of something we missed.

I have firefox as my IP. HRP

thank you danny it works for me.

 

AWESOME installed it and my photos from shitbucket ARE ALL BACK on another site.

Very easy to do, add to your addons just by clicking on it then presto change oh they are back. I had NO PROBLEMS and it couldn't be easier. I didn't have to do anything or change any settings just installed it that is it.

 

That's great and it's like magic,hopefully everyone can do this and enjoy all the threads that have been red X'ed. HRP

 

I did it, worked for awhile then back to this

 

You will not be able to copy and past the photos or save them. HRP

 

Danny,

Firefox has a couple of screenshot add on's that will capture the photos and you can save the photos to your desk top. Therefor all is good....

 

Thank you,I learn something every day. HRP

 

can you tell me me how to do this.

 

In Firefox on the menu bar on the far right click on the "Open Menu" icon. On the drop down screen click on the "Add-ons icon. On the left side menu click on "Get Add-ons" Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the Blue box that says "See more Add-ons" Once you're on the Firefox add on page in the search bar on the upper right type in "Screenshots" The first two results
Awesome Screenshot Plus - Capture, Annotate & More and
Nimbus Screen Capture: Screenshot, Edit, Annotate will appear. Both will copy the photo or anything else on the page to be saved where ever you want it on your computer. They are both incredibly simple to use. As far as Chrome, Windows, and other operating systems goe I'm not familiar with them at all so you are on your own unless someone else chimes in.

What Danny found was ironic because I was just thinking about this very problem today. Thanks again Danny for turning us all onto this simple app.

 

@HOTRODPRIMER loaded that up an it worked. Thank you and your Buddy. I see there's a cell app too...

 

I'm just passing on something I felt was important to the integrity of hundreds of threads that have images that were hosted by PB and they can once again be viewed.

I'm just happy it has worked for most,it has saved some great threads. HRP
