It sort of a free service right now.

You can attach any picture that you have saved to your computer. Here is one that we used for a website here at work. A copy of it will be uploaded and hosted by this site and you can post it anywhere else you want. Just be warned that if suzukisavage.com takes it down, it will no longer work anywhere else you may have used it.

Just use https://postimages.org you don't need to sign up and they supply direct code to embed anywhere or they give you thumbnails that link.

@Island Road, I have to disagree with you, $400 *was* extortion as is $99. In fact the proof that they can come down $300 proves they were just trying to see how badly they could screw people. I'm surprised anyone bothers with them any longer. There are better places to give your cash to if it's a service you need. For what they want to charge you could have your own frikken hosted website for your photos.

You could use a chrome extension named;"photobucket hotlink fix", and now you be able to watch any photobucket picture.

I think that may be a malicious extension. Would advise against using it.

NOTE FROM DAVE: Tocsik appears to be correct....or at a minimum this extension is causing problems in some computers. A large number of recent users state their computers are slowed down to a crawl in the reviews.

Reply #22 - 03/31/18 at 17:39:46 The few photos I've posted here, I've just scanned into my computer, sized them under the size limit for the site and posted. I've never worried about anybodies, bucket or file sharing system.

To further prove my point, (which is your point?) I can even go back and edit what I attached to the earlier post...

The new attachment is now hosted here: http://suzukisavage.com/yabb2.2/Attachments/IMG_20170727_071804829_001.jpg

And it can be inserted here...

Wherever you plan to save your pics, you have to know that I love your bike.

AFAIK the code was injecting the makers amazon ID into amazon links, this has now been removed from the code.
