We were running out of space,bandwidth,what ever it's called so Lori had to delete some of Mikes old pics from 2017-18 from the forums pic posting service chevereto to make more space . unfortunately I think all of the pics from there were lost of that time frame. I've noticed Mikes & Groovers (2017-2018) as well Fred lost over 500 & I lost a few too ,so most likely everyone's from that era are lost.I also noticed a few sigpics,like Pop's,Roy's & Ron's are gone (Mike had did those & may have helped other guys with their sigpics), so if your sigpic is gone that's what happened.
So I asked her if there is a way to turn off being able to upload new pics to chevereto accounts so we dont loose any more old pics & use a different host like postimage. This is how it use to be several years ago,,, but back then most of us used photobucket before they got greedy & started charging. Now lots of us use postimage which is what I primarily used because you dont have to resize your pics . In fact postimage will automatically resize them to the size you choose for each of your pics after you set it to the size you want.
So if everyone would voluntarily stop using the attachment button & the chevereto accounts (until she can turn it off without turning too much off) & we could use postimage or another host to post pics. this will save room & hopefully help save old pics that are a pain to insert back in build threads & probably never will get reinserted into certain helpful threads that are not nearly as helpful without the pics. Pics= 1000 words ea or more ! Like pics from people who are no longer with us will be lost if we keep tearing away the past for the future so if we stop using forum space & use a pic host we help save the old pics!
