Photobucket is dumb and you should use postimage.org instead.

When you say they're blocking 3rd party hosting what exactly do you mean? Hotlinking? This is the first I've heard of it and I use Photobucket pretty regularly. I don't use it to host images I use w/ an HTML img tag (I just link) so maybe that's why I haven't noticed, if that's what they're blocking.
That means you can't use PB to host your pictures and use those pictures on 3rd party websites. For example I had some pictures in my signature here on cK. Those pictures were hosted on PB but when they changed to charging for that service my pictures were replaced with a "you need to upgrade" image.(That's my basic way of explaining it because I not great with terms lol)

Oooooh okay, actually yeah I do see what you mean - I had an img tag in another forum to my Photobucket and it's basically turned into a "no hotlinking" image. I almost always use the direct links but they're only ever clicked on, which just takes you to Photobucket's site so apparently that's okay
