Picture attachments broken! Details here!

We are aware of the problem and are working on it. It was a side effect of the upgrade.\nAny new posts with pics should show up fine. it appears something got crossed with the existing posted attachments.\nWe hope to have it corrected by tomorrow.Again, you can still post and add new pics. The issue is with existing Posts.

Hey everone, I'm Mark - the tech guy who has done a lot of the behind the scenes setup of the forum. I'm also the guy who screwed up all your images. :D It's a long story how it happened, but suffice to say that an attempt to stay safely backed up ended up backfiring during a change to the system this morning..and all of the images that had been uploaded to the forum as part of discussion threads were irrecoverably corrupted.\n\nThe forum setup has been changed temporarily so that everybody can edit their own posts indefinately. When you go to view one of your OWN posts you will see an "EDIT" button. If you are comfortable editing your existing posts you can simply edit your posts with the broken images and re-upload them.\n\nIf you're not comfortable doing that, please just repost your images in a new post and we'll edit things accordingly to put it all back together again.\n\nWe appreciate your patience and understanding as we sort out the last minute building blocks of the forum, and appologise for the hassle.\n\nQuestions or concerns, please post here - we're glad to help.

Thank You mark. Stuff happens, It a new forum so better now than a year from now. Thank you for all the hard work you do to keep it running. By the way the upgrade was at my request because I wanted the last title post to show up so I'm to blame as well.

I just checked all of my past uploaded pics and they are all visible to me in the threads that I have posted in. Can everyone else see them too?

I see a few broken ones, but I'd say 90% of them are good. You're probably seeing 100% of them because they're in your browser cache.\n\nNow, that opens up another weird question...why are some of them showing again? It looked like a total loss earlier when we discovered the issue. :lol: \n\nI won't complain, it's good news. ;)

Ok... I cleared my cache and then I went through and Re-reloaded all of my pics. Let me know if you see any I missed but I am pretty sure I got them all... Lenny
