Photo Bucket fix = Go somewhere else

I did the Photobucket Chrome fix and it worked or at least i thought it worked. All of my photos popped back up and the Photobucket warning was gone, but it appears as if only for me. No one else can see it with out a link to Photobucket. Any suggestions so that I can put a photo up where everyone can just see it?

Don't use it...that is really the best option. See if you can transfer the photos to a different host.

THIS!

That fix only works for you and your browser. Everyone else will have to install it to see your PB photos.

PB sucks and Google photos cant do what I want. What is a better photo solution for syncing across devices as well as posting large photos on CKTG easily?

Imagur has been great for me.

As an avid Google user I am a little disappointed Google photos does not have better a better way to integrate into forums.

I too have been using imgur as of late and it works fine.

That said, I like the PB fix because it allows me to read old tutorials and such and still see the photos.

Forget the recent PB screwup that necessitated the workaround. I couldn't get PB to automatically pull photos from my phone and ipad. I'd have to sign in and out of my accounts to get it to work.

Too bad. It allowed several ways to post photos online in the sizes I wanted. I tried Google and Amazon Prime and neither offers those options. Plus I have to download the photo first to my device and add to a CKTG post as an attachment. PiTA.
