Editing links to images on Photobucket

[Tioh]

All my post with pictures hosted by Photobucket look broken because Photobucket does no longer allow linking from 3rd party sites for free accounts. I've copied the pictures to my own server, but I cannot edit the posts I made in this forum anymore.

How do I change all the URLs pointing to
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y144/Tioh/ or
http://s4.photobucket.com/user/Tioh/media/ to
http://www.markus-g-nowak.de/blogpic/ ?

Anyone who has a Photobucket account has been affected by this, so it's not just you.

Unfortunately, the only way any of us would be able to fix this is if the mods gave us permission to go back and edit our older posts with new links, which they wouldn't do, because they've been very clear about not allowing people to edit older posts to maintain a consistency with posts.

You're lucky you only have a small number of posts to worry about: some of us have hundreds of thousands of posts spanning over ten or so years that have been affected by this - it would be an extreme hassle to go back and edit any and many posts that have been affected by such.

It would only take one click if I could edit my posts (I already wrote a search and replace script and used it with other websites). I guess I'll only reply to questions with links to my own sites from now on. I like to keep my tutorials current.
