Photobucket finally got around to blocking my links, right after I logged on to transfer photos to imgur. I've tried changing my avi link and I've used every one of the ones provided by Imgur, yet I'm still getting the

message.

What am I doing wrong, or are you just blocking Imgur?

Its blocking your photobucket sig and avatar. Update or remove and you will be able to save.

Thanks. I was replacing the avatar and I guess the remaining photobucket link to my sig was what was getting blocked.

I can't transfer any of my other pics yet, because photobucket is "down" right now. Which sucks, because I have a lot of pictures on there that I don't have anywhere else.

Just FYI for anyone else reading this.

You should probably back them up locally. Imgur is good now but this is the Internet, everything starts to suck eventually, in 5 years they might start locking down accounts until you pay $99/month for Imgur Platinum.

I did. I downloaded them to a folder before uploading them to Imgur.

I am now once again in total control over my hot Burning Man girls with tools.



And my many "pigs in the farmhouse" Washington moments. Kinda looks like they're about to make out, doesn't it?

My avy and sig links aren't working and I'm linking them directly from imgur.

You aren't adding the file extension. Add .jpg to the end.
