On one hand, I understand that people hosting images on their site leads to high bandwidth costs.
On the other hand, cutting off all access unless you pay $400 a year is idiotic. You can get a VPS server for less than that and host the images yourself. Or use Amazon AWS, IMGUR, or another service. That charge sounds like it's just going to cause a mass exodus from PhotoBucket to other services (and a lot of broken image links).
