G'day,

Forum news

The dredge pictures in the header of the forum seems to have disappeared! I've tried to fix it, but it seems that there is no quick fix. So ... it could be some time before I can find time to get it back.

Also, there are ongoing problems with links to photos that I have hosted on Photobucket. To fix it I have to move the photos to another hosting site I am paying for, so I can direct link. But it is a massive job and I've only so far managed to fix a few of the most popular threads such as the National Gold thread. The next thread I will try and fix is the Old Man Range thread, but as it has more photos than any other thread it could be some time before it is resolved (could even be next winter before I can do anything about it!)

G'day Lubo,

Thanks for the offer but its a job that only I can do. Its entirely a time issue of moving photos to my new hosting site (I have the new hosting site already set up). When I started I could download photos in bulk in a zip file from Photobucket (which was fairly quick), but now, for some reason, Photobucket does not let me do this any more. So, I have to download each photo individually, and then I have to transfer them into the new hosting site and then ... fix the link. Something always seems to come up to stop me doing the work. For example, over the last few days its been raining so I have the time available, but, I have been sick and confined to bed for most of the day.

BTW: The header on the forum reappeared yesterday after I had given up on being able to fix it myself..

Regards,
Rob (RKC)

G'day,

The thread "Old Man Range" golddredgingforum.proboards.com/thread/954/old-man-range should now have all the photos showing and the links working! Please note; all photos were taken by myself and are copyright. Last winter I intended to mark each of my photos with a copyright notice but it was just too big a job that I could not do (and still have a life).

There are still threads where the links do not work and I will fix them as time permits.

Regards,
Rob (RKC)
