I've been reviewing the alt-porn thread and found that a huge number of my posts from the summer of 2015 and forward into 2016, almost every one of them for more than 30 pages of the thread, have broken images. I've used Imagebam exclusively for this forum. Nothing prior to summer '15 is affected, nothing more recent.

I've been reupping images before I realized the scale and the scope of the problem. This will literally take weeks to rebuild everything. Is there a way to send a "wake up" signal to ImageBam to get all the jpgs to display?

Is this standard operating procedure for image hosts? It really makes sharing a whole lot less fun if we have to come back and redo everything every couple of years. Should I leave the posts alone until a newcomer asks me for the pics? I'm all for due diligence, but man, this is a chore...

For reference, the next page I have to do is this one:

http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/t14...ide-girls.html

and it continues to page 225, possibly more beyond that...
No wake up signal that I know of.

I gave up on Imagebam because of all the lost images, and automatic filename changing problem they seem to have.

So, I have been reloading to Pixhost since the Imagebam fiasco in June 2017.
Pixhost has not been perfect, but no lost images I know of yet. Knock on wood!

There's a thread in this section about pixhost.to (used to be Pixhost.org)
http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/t33...ad-thread.html

Many other picture hosts have threads in this section too.
Most have some problem with them.
