Service Wanted - Fix photobucket picture links..

[eddie13]

Say I was to give you the login to a forum account and a photobucket account..
I would then want you to rehost all the photobucket pics and fix all of the links to the pics, to where it would last..

Do you know a good way of doing this?
Give me a quote of what you would charge per 100 pictures fixed..

If you can do a good job, I know a LOT of people that might like to use your service.. I might be able to get you a lot of work..

do you want someone to do this manually for you or a script to automate this?
you could move all images to google drive for stable better hosting, unless google is not an option
can you tell me what forum? any reason why move out of photobucket? speed, quota, etc?

Want embedded Photobucket images to continue loading in forums or on your website? Be prepared to pay $399 per year.


They are evil..
Everyone on forums for years and years used photobucket to host their pics for their build threads, diy tutorials, and a lot of valuable information/content has been lost due to photobucket getting greedy..

The forums are like mostly car forums.. Tons of pics of car parts basically..

If you could do it easily with a script more power to ya..
The job doesn't have to be done super fast..

The big problem is photobucker doesn't let you even download all of your photos in one shot anymore. You have to do them all individually and their spammy site takes forever to load each page, then you have 1,000 pics to do, and fix links, huge job I don't want to do..


If you could just make a script do it all.. Wow... I'd be impressed..

I see this..
I'll get with you in a bit and maybe you can do it..

aah yeah... after my post I did a quick google search on photobucket
people are furious because photobucket starts charging for its image hotlinking services since last year

if you don't require speedy work nor scripted, I guess I'm up for it
I might even figure out how to make it (semi) automated while working on it
btw photobucket has free API with daily throttle limits but required registration as developer
