broken links to pictures?
« on: September 07, 2006, 17:58:42 pm »
I'm guessing that this is an artifact from the hacking episode, but...  it seems that links to pictures (e.g. in Photo Gallery) and I think links to other BW posts are broken.  Maybe it's just me.   :-\  Anyway, not a huge deal, but I thought y'all should know.  Andy's done a superb job getting the site back up for us.   :D

Andy has mentioned this in the News Box at the top of the forum index :)  We're going to see some broken links, lost attachments and avatars as a result of being hacked :)

Ooops!   :-[  I'm always in such a hurry to get to the posts!  Sorry. 

Like I said, I figured it was related to the hacking, but wanted someone to know if it wasn't.  Thanks for the info!

Hi,
Just to confirm that there may be lots of broken images and avatars, this is because all such files were from a backup made a couple of months ago. If (or rather when) you see a broken image or avatar, please let the poster know in case they want to fix it!

Thanks!
Andy

Please refer broken links to the original person who posted them via pm, they are the only ones who would still have the original pics to post again :) :) :)
