Photobucket redirects Opera desktop to the mobile version.
Photobucket redirects Opera desktop to the mobile version of their website.I already contacted them but they simply gave me the non-sense "use IE or Firefox" message.
You can click on Non-mobile Photobucket.com at the end of the page but there's a big problem: the link to switch to the desktop version of the website isn't available when you come in the website through a link of an image hosted in the website (what happens in 99% of the cases, when you find the image in a search engine or; when receive the link from a friend or Twitter), example: http://m108.photobucket.com/image/funny%20gif/CodeLyokoFreak1/7dcda2aa.gif.html?o=1 (there's no Non-mobile Photobucket.com link).
The fact is that Photobucket shouldn't even redirect the desktop version of Opera to the Photobucket mobile website version! Please do what you can to fix it, as I said above I was unsusseful.

Even if I had cookies from Photobucket sometime it would be just cleaned because a clean all private data once a week.
And I just cleaned everything again and going to Photobucket.com = Photobucket mobile website.
Maybe it's because my UA-String is different than yours: I'm a pt-BR speaker...
Are you sure you don't have this issue? Aren't you masking Opera as other web browser on this website or changed the UA-String permanently to all websites via opera:config?

I can confirm. When I first opened the page it was in the desktop version but AFTER I clicked the link you gave (this one http://m108.photobucket.com/image/funny%20gif/CodeLyokoFreak1/7dcda2aa.gif.html?o=1) it started loading mobile version every time.

I confirmed my theory now, I deleted all my cookies and changed the language of the browser to English and the website opens in the desktop version. When I'm using the browser in Brazilian Portuguese they don't detect it correctly and I'm redirected to the mobile version, you can see it for yourself doing the same thing I did: delete your cookies, change your Opera browser language to pt-BR and go to Photobucket homepage.
