    Pictures on Older Threads Gone???

    Quick question: I was doing some searching on the general thread for wood wheels a few minutes ago, and I noticed that threads going back longer than 6 months seem to have no more pictures attached? I was wondering if this is due to limited bandwidth on the site server, in which the server that automatically deletes pictures after a certain time period, or if there is some technical problem. I would hate to think that all of the great pictures people have posted on this board are gone???!!!
    If not, is there a way to retrieve them?

    Yep I too got the box and ? mark. I chalked it up as a Macintosh thing. Sorry to hear someone else had the problem.

    I can't speak for the Mac guys, but for us windows guys, if you right click on the little x, a window will pop-up. One of the selections is "properties". Click on that and see where the picture is located. Often, folks will link to a picture on e-bay or some other site that deletes their pictures over time.

    Gruen-Can you post a few links to pages where you have this problem?
