Photobucket starts charging for hot linking

[jair101]

You probably heard that photobucket has suddenly started charging $400 per year for hot linking images (link). This left many forums crippled as some of them encouraged uploading to photobucket and sharing the image, instead of uploading to the server of the forum.

90%+ on the images on my forum are uploaded directly, but I have not explicitly forbidden hotlinking from external sources, so is there any way I can search through my database to see if there are photobucket linked images there so I can fix them?

You can use phpMyAdmin.

Go to pma, select your database, click on the Search tab.
