They have a free account you cna register for. I copy the second link in the list below the pic in photobucket to my post in DU and it shows up.

2. If it's a pic that's already hosted somewhere, then |
|
Right click on the pic
Properties
Copy the URL
Paste URL in the Message
Click Preview to be sure it works
Then Post Message
Let the bandwidth theft begin!

10. You can avoid direct hotlinking and bandwidth theft by using a caching service: |

4. If you upload to photobucket, you can re-size it |
|
at photobucket too, which comes in handy.
Also, when you copy the picture url here, make sure it ends in jpg or gif. Photobucket sometimes puts a lot of junk letters at the end and you have to delete those so your pic url ends in .jpg or .gif
:hi:
