Having been away from my computer for a few days i have returned to see the images i provided for different tutorials via Photobucket have been replaced with the dreaded ‘Exceeded Bandwidth’ Image.Apologies to anyone that was effected, i try to host as many images as possible within Blogger as they do not have a limit (Not one we are likely to reach anyway).I am in the process of moving the photobucket images to other hosting options so the problem will soon be solved although you will have to replace the image code you have used from some tutorials.
Update 18 October 2010 – We have recently added the instructions for using the latest improved version of this gadget on your blog.Check out Version 2 of the Sexy Bookmarks here – New Version Share The Love Sexy Bookmarks For Blogger
The most comments received regarding this issue were on the Sharing is caring and Sharing is sexy social bookmarking gadgets.In both those posts i have updated the code and replaced the images with images hosted in Tinypic.com and both are now working fine.If you removed the gadgets because of the problem you can now reinstall them, if you still have the gadgets in place with the broken image here is how to quickly fix the problem.
