You may not have heard about Photobucket screwing over a ton of people with their new third party image hosting plan. (Read more here: http://nypost.com/2017/07/05/how-photobucket-is-now-shaking-down-its-users/) Basically, it means if you have a free account, you can no longer host your images without paying $400/year! So, all those clever grab codes I make for images and buttons...they have to be fixed with a new link from wherever the images are now being hosted. Luckily, I own two domains on GoDaddy so I get free image storage up to a certain amount and then I can pay extra if I need more (only $1.99/month). But with 7+ blogs/sites, it's going to take me a bit. I hope you will bear with me.
If you have any of my buttons on your site, I'm afraid you will have to delete and then come back by at a later date to grab the new code. There should not be any further problems in future. Fingers crossed.
I hope Photobucket crashes and burns for their underhanded tactics. I mean, I didn't even get an email notifying me!
I used a free grab box code generator and hosted the picture on my blog. I use WordPress but I dont think you need to pay extra. This was the generator I used. Let me know if you have questions, i will try to help. https://www.mycoolrealm.com/sandbox/gbgen/
