missing pictures in mklotz posts

Interesting, not sure what happened with the fixphotobucket.com script. I wonder if he ran into copyright issues with Photobucket, or got a letter from their attorney; they can't be happy with it.

Keep in mind that I've already automatically retrieved most of these images, and I have a copy, so let me know if you're missing any.

Viewing a PB blocked image... I can't explain why this works, or whether it will continue to work, but, using Firefox...

Right click on the PB "speedometer" and select "View image" from the dropdown menu. You should be taken to the PB page; the display will still show the speedometer.

Now click on the page refresh icon next to the page address at the top of the screen. If it works for you, the correct picture should now appear.

But, here's where it gets interesting.

Click the back button - you may have to click it several times - until you return to the page that had the blocked image. The correct image should now appear in place of the dreaded speedometer!!

Very weird. Sounds like you stumbled on some sort of bug caused by the complex tricks they're using to prohibit or allow image viewing.
