On another forum I visit I came across a fix for seeing old threads with Photobucket images that now have the images blocked. Some clever fellow developed a browser extension that manages to circumvent the Photobucket block. I tried it and it worked great. I used the Google Chrome browser extension which is here:

The images might not come up right away because you have that annoying blue and white blocking image stored in your browser cache. A couple of things I learned to do if that happens. While viewing the page, on Windows do a Ctrl+Shift+R or Ctrl+F5 to override the cache, or on a Mac do Cmd+Shift+R. Or just dump the browser cache.
