I think that photobucket stopped allowing third party picture hosting last year so if people used it they couldn't 'share' a photo on another web site by inserting a photobucket hyperlink, unless the user paid an exorbitant annual fee. The consequences were that all previously linked photos became a blank icon. A lot of people shifted to Flickr. Maybe that's why you can't see historic photos.
