Subject
forum_emoticons.html	[quote=APS221,45652]I'm glad you pointed this out. I saw a similar message a few days ago, and was worried about my comment pictures getting deleted. I was getting ready to move my images to multiple free imageshack accounts or another website. I had about 2,000 images in my imageshack account, and over the past few days moved about 200 to a new imageshack account and edited my comments with new image links. In addition, imagehost.org has closed and is not accepting any new images. Existing images are still being hosted, but for how long is unknown. I used imagehost when I first started posting on IMCDb, but quickly switched to imageshack. I haven't read much about the new limits online, except for a few posts in other forums. I know this isn't exactly like megaupload getting shut down, but I thought the limits would be a bigger deal with lots of people posting about it online.[/quote]

Opening it up on my iPhone gives me the new image, so it's probably a browser issue - but annoying all the same.

EDIT: yeah - clearing the log somehow helped.

EDIT_2: but only for the R21... for this Jetta, the old image still shows :kiki:

I keep pressing F5, but nothing happens.

I see the same pic both times suggesting it has worked. Have you forgotten about F5 to refresh cache?

Lateef

I have a problem. I would like to replace the mainpic of http://imcdb.org/vehicle.php?id=962933 with http://pics.imcdb.org/4290/r21skl86.jpg - but whenever I do, I get a message saying "picture has been sent successfully", and it's the same old picture.

Yes that's because you block ads. Solution: unblock ads on IMCDb :whistle:

Problem is that it may also be blocked for other people then.
If you wish to "rename" them you can simply re-upload them under another name, the old ones will be deleted when I do the clean of unused files every few months.

Lateef

Okay, bizarre idea... but might it have something to do with adblock?

EDIT: it must be, because I see the thumbs when I'm on my iPhone... False alarm, folks!

Lateef

I've noticed a bug (I think) - whenever I name a thumbnail 'ad', which I used to do for some Audis, they turn out invisible:

http://imcdb.org/vehicle.php?id=325083#Comment1813126

Now, I know the images exist, as when editing the comment and copying the filename of the image takes me to the image in question:

http://pics.imcdb.org/4290/ad2.8.jpg

If the bug is not solvable, I might want to rename those concerned, as there aren't that many. I'm just interested in what might have caused this bug - as it's obviously something recent (I didn't notice when I posted the thumbs initially).

antp

I included only those who had more than 1000 pics on the server
(many of those you upload are for replacement and so are deleted once used)

Note that it is not a competition :tongue:

What about me?
