Photobucket still lets you download all your images into a zip folder, which you can save on your computer. PostImages allows you to upload multiple images simultaneously if you want to. The tedious part is going back to any of the LOST threads you care about to update the IMG tags so that they point to the new location of your pics. It takes time but it is worth it for others on the forum, especially if it is a thread you know people commonly reference.
Good advice,
download all your pictures you have in Photobucket to a zip file on your computer or laptop, then set up new account in PotImage or Imgur. Un-zip file and on your computer, organize them into folders by type or group if you have a bunch of them. Then either program will allow you to upload multiple groups by selecting them all at once. Both hosts allow you to organize them into folders (PostImage calls them "Gallery's")
Then to replace all your broken Photobucket links, do this:
To search on LOST for all your posts that have a Photobucket link embeded.
Click on the "Search" button and insert: "photobucket&yourLOSTname" in the search box. (no quotation marks)
Example: photobucket&jeepman
then click on Search and it will find every post
you have with a photobucket link!
Then it is just a matter of replacing the broken link with a new one!
It takes some time, I went through repairing about 350 broken links!
If someone other than you have quoted your post with a bad link, sorry, SOL! Only the original poster who quoted you has edit rights!
