I just read the following on another forum. I have not tried it and cannot vouch for its truthfulness. Hope it can solve the disastrous photobucket issue.

"Apparently Google Chrome and Foxfire have found a way to access the photos that Photobucket.com does not now allow you to post to 3rd party sites anymore without paying a high price.

"In the cases where former/current PhotoBucket users haven't deleted all their albums, Chrome and Firefox now have an extension, Photobucket Embed Fix, that will display 3rd party hosted images. It will fix all your broken pics, no need for you to do anything, it runs entirely in the background.

Click Tools>Add-Ons >select Extensions > enter "photobucket embed" in the Search box (upper right corner) > then click the install button.
