PSA: the photobucket annyoing images
What was a free service for 14 years is now gone. I get that photobucket wants to be paid, But I really wish they wouild remove their inserted imgage ad of Pay up or else. This is going to require some painful editing of the site. I do not control the images. I went into my photobucket and didn't find the images used to make the site pretty.
Adding that photobucket isn't cheap and I do not have 400 dollars to spare to unlock this image hosting issue, plus paying the ransom does no good if the images are not linked to my account anyways.

Alternatives to photobucket.
I have a Flikr account, but it may not work for LJ as embedded images.

If any web designers/programmers have a suggestion, please reply.
EDIT: I have since cleaned up every photobucket insertion where they sell the 400 buck a year service. The GS100 site isn't "pretty" anymore but it is still functional. I have the old code saved to my PC. It is what it is folks. =(
