Photobucket question

This may be stupid, but I get 3rd party hosting has been temporarily disabled

Do I need to "join" photobucket for $99/year to see pics of installs, etc?

a couple years ago I bought the extra storage for around $3 a month and find my photobucket still works fine.

That message is directed to the person who posted the image, not their audience (you and I). There are supposed to be extensions to Chrome and Firefox web browsers that work around this barrier but I have not been able to get them to work under macOS. Maybe Windows users fare better.

Your $99 allows others to see your pics. Don't pay them, find something else!

Thanks fordguy2100. I had downloaded the Photobucket Embed Fix instead of the Photobucket Embedded Image Fix. Correcting that, I can see the previously blocked images just fine now.
