    Answered: Missing Images

    Broken images in non-hub doubling:

    http://www.lincolncentforum.com/the-...resource-page/
    VERDI-CARE™ ALL METAL CONSERVATION FLUID

  2. "I am going through all of our main home, site pages and eliminating any links to images hosted on outside servers. This is an issue that will only continue to happen and potentially get worse as these image hosting sites change their terms of service and usage with the result of sites like ours showing broken links messages. Members are free to use whatever outside services they prefer within posts, but for our information pages we need to keep them on the server itself and available in the future without interruption. If anyone sees additional broken links on lincolncentforum.com that I have missed please shoot me a PM or post them here so they can be adjusted.

    Will as I mentioned before if there are updates to the glossary or any other pages send them to me and I will make any needed adjustments. Thanks."

    Yeah. Seems like the photos hosted by Photobucket need a renewal.

    I believe that came up before and they have changed the format to increase their revenue. Meaning they are charging for others to view an account holders images.

    Need to upgrade accounts or the links get disabled.

    In the past they gave you links that said they were meant for posting online.
    Now those won't work with regular accounts.

    I think Jason is using flikr now, could be because of photobucket changing their pricing. I tried to find one of Jason's last posts to verify if he switched to flickr but could not find them. Jim, can you help me and search Jason's posts? You are the search and find wizard! It might be beneficial to use something besides photobucket!

    Either updating of the Photo Bucket account, insert an updated link to the source for the images or store the images on the LCF server is the only ways I can think of to fix the issue!!!

    I am aware of this for some time now, and I really want to fix the images as soon as Peter fixes my log-in. The glossary is also in dire need of editing and updating.

    Will, if the person who posted the photo decided to not pay for a premium account, then there's nothing we can do to view it right?

    It's my account. I can transfer the photos from photobucket to my computer and upload them to the LCF directly and they will be visible.

    Cool, that would work! I think some people got aggravated with photobucket when they decided to charge a premium for their service. I think flickr and imgur are free photo hosting websites, might be worth checking into.
