Is it possible to set up a custom image so that any photobucket photos that result in the "PB error image" actualy shows a custom image saying "Photobucket are a bunch of dickheads"

? 

Thats a good idea. Hopefully we can get more storage so i can import them all and we will never see that message again.

that would be amazing... no idea how it would be done but i am sure you can do it

Could we also sort out Flickr and Imgur links working in adverts? Currently the direct links aren't recognised.

Also, when I click preview an advert, all my text disappears out of the main body field, yet the preview still shows but I can't then post it. If I click back in my browser the field is empty again. Happens if I try and modify the advert after posting too.

The problem is you can only place text in the main description box and you are putting images in there which is breaking it and it wont edit or preview. Add images in the image fields provided.

I've removed the images from the description and added the image url sereratly you should be able to edit it now.

Ah, I see what you did there, I'll give that a try in my other advert and see how I get on.

As for the idea about a redirect on Photobucket images, could you do a re-direct command similar to how PB are doing with everyone's images? So when it detects the image it re-directs to yet another image as requested?

I will probably write a script to copy them all to this server (once we move it and get more storage) then rename all the links bye bye photobucket  .

Fair enough. I was thinking in HTTP terms but this forum is PHP which I've not learned yet. Still, hosting our own images sounds cool, but not for us forum whores who share across multiple forums I guess?

Least it means less storage used up on dedicated servers I guess...

it would just be an image link which you could use elsewhere.

When clicking on the "for sale" tab in the top banner I am greeted with an empty screen with only a link back to the homepage.

This should be fixed now
