I have just completed a test run of repairing an old story replacing the 'photobucket' pictures with 'Postimage' pictures.

It is a bit time consuming, and I fear that I won't be doiung many of my past stories this way, but we shall see.

Would Forum members please have a look at what I have done and see if it is working properly? Thanks in advance, Dane.

It's all fine as far as I can see, and I can only admire your perseverance with a task that would have driven me to square-eyed insanity before the halfway mark... Smile

All looks good to me too, I still haven't got to grips with what I am going to do about P/B, probably could do with some advice.

Hi Dane,

It looks good to me too.

I think it's well worth while and have done it to all my threads that I can remember but your recent "Hotfix" looked to be a much easier solution and is still working faultlessly.

Thanks for the quick replies, Gents. It gives me courage to start on part 2 of that story. I doubt if I would have the fortitude to do all of my previous stories, but as time allows, I'll have a go at ones that I think are most important.

Thanks Peter, the 'hotfix' might not work for an extended time, but at least it is helping me to identify the actual photos that I used first up.

MrWhite, choose one of the several alternative image hosting sites. I decided to use Postimage, but I believe others are just as good. https://postimages.org/ I am happy to help if you find that you need assistance.
