To be on the safe side we should continue saving pics posted on ImageBam for the time being.
BTW, on the positive side: using halvar's tool ( version 1.24 of imagerescue) I'm able to notice former posts with some dead (full) images. The still existing thumbs were saved though. So it is easy to spot posts with dead images by searching for "thumb" on your HD (or wherever you saved the posts). 
Assuming that ImageBam will be up again soon, you get the chance to edit only your own ( partially dead) posts instead of rehosting the pics in all of your posts.

Let's use our imagination: Perhaps it wasn't a legal threat that caused them planning to shut down services but a server overload or lack of money - and a generous sponsor stepped in to solve their problems, hopefully.
