Not sure if this has been noticed here yet (I could not see a thread) but this is from photobuckts terms and conditions:
6.1 Photobucket does not claim any ownership rights in the text, files, images, photos, video, sounds, musical works, works of authorship, applications, or any other materials (collectively, "Content") that you post on or through the Photobucket Services. By displaying or publishing ("posting") any Content on or through the Photobucket Services, you hereby grant to Photobucket and other users a non-exclusive, fully paid and royalty-free, worldwide, limited license to use, modify, delete from, add to, publicly perform, publicly display, reproduce and translate such Content, including without limitation distributing part or all of the Site in any media formats through any media channels, except Content marked "private" will not be distributed outside the Photobucket Services. Photobucket and/or other Users may copy, print or display publicly available Content outside of the Photobucket Services, including without limitation, via the Site or third party websites or applications (for example, services allowing Users to order prints of Content or t-shirts and similar items containing Content). After you remove your Content from the Photobucket Website we will cease distribution as soon as practicable, and at such time when distribution ceases, the license to such Content will terminate. If after we have distributed your Content outside the Photobucket Website you change the Content’s privacy setting to "private," we will cease any further distribution of such "private" Content outside the Photobucket Website as soon as practicable.

Now also if you go to the site and have an account you can have any image sent to your phone - for the charge of $2.
I have not looked into this much but I can't recall photobucket being an "unsafe" area for photographers to post their images without worries of image theft. Now it appears that the TC does allow for that right to photobucket (similar to on places like Facebook).
Can anyone firstly comfirm if this is the case - and also does anyone remember if this was in the original TC - or is this a new addition.
