Photobucket is charging a fee for hotlinking

I quit putting stuff on there probably five years ago.

I saw that. I have been moving stuff around and off ever since.

I quit Photobucket about 3 months ago (after 5 years) when a so-called site update seemed to kill my free account. I went to Imgbox and all seemed good but recently they said they were closing on June 30 so I signed up with Imgur which seems very hassle-free. Just now I found out that Imgbox didn't shut down after all, so I have 2 free image hosters. This is hotlinked to Imgbox...



This is from Imagebam where you get a thumbnail option as here:

Dump them already. That attempt to charge is utter nonsense.
