How to Keep FBML from Linking to Photobucket
The Facebook FBML language is a proprietary language used to interface with Facebook fan pages. FBML uses some HTML and connections to the Facebook API. Facebook has an editor in your programming dashboard that allows you to edit the content on your pages. Use this editor to remove any links to the Photobucket website, which is a site that hosts user pictures.

Remove all links to the photobucket website. A link is identified with the "A" tag, which is also called the anchor tag. The "A" tag code lets the user click the text and open the Photobucket image on your Facebook fan page. The following code is an example of a Photobucket link:
<a href="photobucket.com/account">Click here to see the image on my Photobucket account</a> -

Use your mouse to highlight the code from the opening "<A>" tag to the closing "</A>" tag, and click the "Delete" key on your keyboard to delete it.

Click the button labeled "Update" underneath the editor to save your changes. You can verify that the link was successfully deleted by opening the fan page in a separate browser tab.
