Photobucked blows

There's something weird going on with the images I have on photobucket.

Whenever I have an image I have on my photobucket account image linked (like a signature or something) I can't see it at all unless I copy and paste the image URL into firefox's address bar. Yet for some reason other people can see my direct linked images yet I CAN'T (cl_out can vouch for me on this).

I can see images stored on other people's photobucket accounts direct linked, just not my own, yet other people can still see mine.

How can I fix this? Or can somebody at LEAST show me an image host that doesn't suck?

So.... use a different service.
