They made a midnight announcement a few weeks ago. I just let my account go but I think you will need to find another site and repost unless you want to pay their ridiculous price. I could see if they wanted to charge 19.95 a year but 399 is utterly ridiculous. Web space isn't free so I don't mind paying a reasonable amount.
Oh dear - I had no idea! I've used photobucket occasionally for posting pics to lj, so I suppose they've vanished. Not many, luckily, because it's only been when lj's been glitching and I really needed to post today...
I just use lj for posting pics to lj, cos it's so simple and the pics are there, but if you don't want to do that then... well, hopefully someone can suggest something!
But to do it in lj - just hit the picture icon, and follow the instructions!
I stopped using PB in 2010 and I just post html from LJ directly. All of my pics but one are still on AO3. I don't much care what they do with my PB account. Some of the old LJ pics are gone, of course but I'm not of a mind to go back and replace them.
It is possible to link to pics in the LJ Scrapbook from AO3.
I'm in the same situation as you - all my AO3 links to Photobucket are now held to ransom and no longer working. I will be moving my pics off Photobucket and on to both LJ and Dropbox and then reworking all my AO3 links to no longer reference Photobucket. I was told about the Photobucket situation by my BB writers. I said we'd warn the other Pros BB folk in one of the weekly check-in posts.
