Link shortened Photobucket pictures don't show up correctly

Basically, I used Google URL Shortener to shorten some URL's from Photobucket, but when I go to add them to the HTML on my page, instead of directly linking to the photo like they're supposed to, the links all link instead to the album page on Photobucket, causing the images to naturally break on my website. The photos will work properly if I don't shorten the URL, but I really would prefer the links to be shortened. The problem I'm running into doesn't happen on Chrome or Opera and seems Firefox exclusive, which is a pain as there are certain members of my website that do in fact use Mozilla Firefox.

On Chrome and Opera, the Photobucket links are correct and show up like this: http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j27/DaBlackGoku13/055_SAKEDE.png However, on Firefox, they incorrectly show up like this, despite the fact my shortened link is the example above: http://s76.photobucket.com/user/DaBlackGoku13/media/055_SAKEDE.png.html

One of my shortened URL's look like this: http://goo.gl/3ZXVbv

Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

See the discussion in this thread:

It seems to depend on the request header send.

It works if you (temporarily) set the network.http.accept.default to an empty string.

data:text/html,<img src='http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j27/DaBlackGoku13/055_SAKEDE.png'>

The default accept header that Firefox sends doesn't work and redirects:

  • Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
