I had a look on the postimage website and found the cause of the missing photos. (http://postimages.org/contact)
They have some sort of registry issue and the old website is locked, so they have had to move everything over to postimage.cc
Meanwhile, if you want to make photos that you have uploaded re-appear then you need to edit the post and change the part in the image link that says org to cc
This only applies to images that were uploaded using the "add image" button on the forum.
I'm sorry that this cannot be done en mass.
Thanks
Marianne

Agree ... thank you for looking into this for us all, Marianne. It was getting to be quite annoying.  |

Maybe not, but you have made it easy for us to do it for ourselves .... at least now we know what to do! |

Just to add to that, as I have had a go at doing this ... there are two .org parts to each image. I changed the first, nothing happened; changed the second as well and viola! I now have pictures. Edit that to say that it is the second .org that needs to be changed to get photos back, if that makes any sense to people..... Full sized photos will only have the one .... (I think!) and the smaller thumbnail photos have two. I don't have the expertise to explain this any better. |

Ah sorry hezz. The one I changed was a full size photo. I should have checked further, but I guess I was excited that it worked and went to quickly report it!

Thank you Marianne and Hezz.
My way round it was to link any missing pictures to my own private image on my computer.
If you come across any that are missing just let me know.

I've done a similar thing with some of my images where I have linked to photos on my blog. Obviously I can't upload all photos to my blog though! |
