Guys, done something a bit daft. Well it seemed sensible at the time. Now that I no longer have Lil Blue, I thought it sensible to rearrange my Photobucket albums and sort of archive most of the pics and start new folders with all of my 80 pictures and projects in.
Well, it was a good idea at the time. I ditched some images but moved most into archive files. It is not as easy as dragging here and there so I thought I had copied so that I could paste later. Now 2 things I didn't know. 1. That moving them broke the link with anywhere it was pasted 2. That I hadn't copied them at all. It didn't work. So when I deleted the pics on the board I did not have anything on my clip board. I have also deleted the empty albums so I have no idea what the original 'addresses?' were. I actually thought that when you posted a pic, it got copied into the the server of the host. Uhm, that'd be a no then.
The result is of course that many of the development pics of Lil blue posted here and there have vanished. Now I probably have most, but not all of the originals, but frankly I don't think that I have the time nor energy to track all of those posts down and re allocate the pictures.
So if there is a particular post (anywhere, TLOCUK, Pradopoint, LCOOL) etc that you come across and you need an image, let me know and I shall see what I can resurrect on demand as it were. I don't think that I have posted many pics on here yet, and I only moved files on the 90, not the 80 so I think this forum will be largely unaffected.
I had no idea about the effect of this until Simon (from TLOCUK) mailed me and asked if there was a problem. Obviously very many of the pictures of Lil Blue were posted on there before I came over to this new forum.
I had a quick look back at previous posts on TLOCUK and it looks rather bad. I have apologised to Simon and of course I shall see what I can do when I can, but it would be a lot of work. I guess he could just decide to delete all of my posts with no pics which would be a shame as the text is still there.
Moral is, be careful when you are tidying up picture files!
