If you delete the pictures, or move them to another album in your photobucket account, they will no longer be seen on the internet until you re-edit your links inside your post here on TinBoats with the new "IMG CODE".

I hope this helps anyone looking for some advice.
 
I resize my photos using PIXresizer (free) on my computer before I upload them anywhere and then when posting them to a site that has any kind of image hosting (as Tinboats does) I use their image hosting service. Don't have to worry about the dreaded little red x because of broken links
