Photobucket image errors?
I want to use photobucket for most of my image hosting (At least for now-) But everytime I do I get errors at the top of my page with the hosted images...
For example- How do I get this to dissapear? because they show up one line for each photobucket hosted image...so if I have alot of them..alot of the page will be filled with these... |

This is because direct links to photobucket images are not links to images but rather a link to an .html file disguised as a .png. Have you tried manually visiting a direct link? About one out of every four times it'll go to a page with just the image, the rest of the time it's to a photobucket page with ads and links to the direct link which is, ironically, what you were trying to visit.
And Mysidia trying to access these files is no different than a person trying to. Sometimes it'll go to a direct image, sometimes it won't. If it gets an image file, no error. If it gets the page with ads instead, it throws the error you're getting. My recommendation? Don't use photobucket. Alternatively, pay to be a premium member on photobucket so you're actually allowed to hotlink images - free members only get so much bandwidth, and once you're past that, all you'll ever get are errors. Basically, hotlinking takes up their bandwidth, and that's a bad thing, so they replace your images with an error so you stop stealing their ad revenue which they get when people view their images ON photobucket itself.
