    Ahoy, shipmates. I've just noticed that most of my photos have disappeared off my New Members' intro thread. No idea why. Any thoughts, please?

    Have you moved them/tidied them up in photo bucket?

    I have, shipmate. Photobucket suggested I have a bit of a tidy up. So I did. Put stuff in different folders and all that. Would that have done it? How do I remedy it?

    There's your problem right there then mate. You have moved the pictures so essentially the img code no longer exists, for that particular photo album, If that makes sense, to show it again you will have to delete the old image code in your post and replace it with the new one.

    Thank you, Dave. Steep learning curve for me, this. I have a 13 year old son. I should get him to do it!

    +1 on this. They've managed to turn a decent little site into a shite one in one go. Despite massive negative feedback from their mass beta test of the new look last year they've gone ahead with it warts'n all.

    Self same thing happened to me Shanes. They launched the new site as a test and "invited" users to swap, with the option to swap back. The new one just kept freezing up going between windows so I swapped back and filled in their "You don't seem happy" questionnaire. Me and many, many others, according to Google. Then, not so long ago I had the "Countdown to Switchover" email, and then the deed was done. Who knows, they may have sorted the bugs, but it doesn't sound like it.

    no the new one is up bugs and all, I switched back then
    last week it changed to the new one again with no way
    of getting back to the old version.
    its like the windows 8 of the hosting world.
