I recommend not trying to continue to use PB for new content. You've no guarantee this work around will work in the future.

I view this as an opportunity to shift hosting, while not losing access for hopefully that transition period.

Just got me wondering: was this fix offered by Botophucket of is it an external hack? If the latter, there's a good chance it will be overridden fairly quickly.

Nevertheless, it's great to have it while it works, so sincere thanks for the link.

Before I install this to Chrome, is it a fix for people using PB to get their photos to display or is it for non PB users to see what others have posted? I suspect it is for PB users, not viewers but ...

I've no idea...but I'm moving away from PB. I will start using my blog site for hosting forum pix as it has unlimited hosting and I can use the same link twice (blog + forum).

No solution is what I want (Picasa) but this works. Of course, I may have to pay for my blog in the future...here's hoping not. My expectation is that so long as I post to the blog the host will allow me to use it for free as they probably put ads on it (even though I've turned that off).

I believe it is a browser go-around for people to see the pictures PB replaced with their boilerplate.
If you search the web for aircraft pix, or whatnot, you can find instances where an image is displayed on the search site, but is replaced on the host site with the direct link. There is secondary code PB is using to replace the pictures at the address they are linked to. I believe this browser add-on disrupts that secondary code from being implemented as the picture and the link have not changed.

PB should not even be aware of it... until they hear from an outside source, of course. The fix is in your personal browser.

At any rate, it should help for now, and bother PB later. I don't really mind if it bothers PB, since I didn't write the code. :lol:

I haven't found any obvious fix for Safari, and I don't use the other browsers. Oh well. thing is, I can just as easily switch the hosting to another site, and everyone else can see my legacy stuff in the menatime, even if i can't. I wonder how rich PB is getting from their customer-alienating approach. Even if I were willing to pay for 3P hosting, at this point, it wouldn't be them.

There are tons more. Jeff Groves intends to add the necessary browser and add-on to be able to grab as many of the "In Progress" threads that he can.

What a mess... Thanks, PB.

Robert,

I have received the link that bypasses the PB Block that you have sent and I went through the process on downloading via FireFox. However I'm at a loss as to what I am really supposed to do next. I'm sorry I am NOT a computer geek. I just know enough to be dangerous. If you or someone here can explain or share what I need to do in order to rectify my photo posts I would really appreciate it.
