Photobucket recently stopped 3rd party hosting of its pics if you didn't have a paid account. Pics I posted on other forums are now missing from the posts.

So it could either be the Photobucket issue or possibly the original poster deleted the pics.
 
Here's a thread with more info on the Photobucket issue that Marie reported: photo bucket rip off

Some of the picture heavy threads on the watch forums are now barren.
 
The websites that required photobucket uploads in order to reduce their web hosting costs are now going to pay for it.
 
Good news for the long run, since Jan 2016, our software supports "cut and paste". No need to link to another site as you can paste the image right into the post. In fact, some of the links are converted to a local hosting just to prevent this from happening. Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do about images that are linked in the old software and have stopped being hosted or are otherwise unavailable.
 
Great news! There is an extension for Google Chrome and Firefox that will allow you to see the blocked Photobucket images.
