It's not the first time, but all images that are hosted on the forum's servers are missing today. No reason to panic yet though.

A couple of years ago, we had a bad server crash and lost most of the hosted images. A few months later, we had another crash, but most of the images were recovered.

Let's hope the problem today is more like the 2nd one. Smile

That's why I started using a different picture host then (http://pix.nofrag.com/) and guess what, last 12 hours I get the message:

And I really don't "veuillez excuser" those French for "gene occasionee", I want them to "Retour" those pics and fast damnit. Merde I mean.

I agree, R0m30 u 1 funny guy (got me rolling) Laughing Have 2 admit I was panicking when I saw no pics anywhere on the board Embarassed but then found this thread and so now I patiently await their return. For a second there I was terrified that in the week I had been absent something fatal had happened 2 my favorite forum. Shocked I'm not sure how well I would deal with that..... Wink

Just curious if anyone has received any word on what's going on with the pictures and whether we can expect them to be available again anytime soon. Kinda painful knowing all these wonderful images exist but just not available to be admired.

By far my favourite site, and have just started by journey through the many many quality threads.

GS was pleased to let me know thing were fixed and I am pleased to pass the word on.
