New Photo Gallery Coming Soon
http://www.ptboatforum.com/cgi-bin/MB2/netboardr.cgi?cid=101&fid=102&tid=4301
A new member Photo Gallery in the works . . .
In the meantime since the Photobucket debacle, I’ve been downloading all the images from Photobucket . . . . .
(nearly 6,000 photo and other images - nearly 1 gigabyte of data).
Along with that I have created a User Photo Gallery elsewhere on the Forum’s Website
and creating member accounts for each of the old Photoshop Albums. This gallery is not yet ready for member use, but will be available shortly. The creation of this new Gallery will [b]NOT[/b] resolve the issues of missing images within posts. But it does create library of images previously shown on Photobucket.
The now “missing photos” can be reinstated by members whom posted the earlier images by doing a little work and re-linking them from their new Gallery account. This is a lot of work, but does work.
Below is a couple of images now being posted and displayed here on the [b]PT Boat Forum[/b] from its very own [b]Image Gallery[/b]. The images shown were gleamed from the Elco Photo Album being sold on eBay:
Within a few days more info will be made available - it is not ready for user use.

Great news Dick, and what Ted said! I know it is taking a tremendous effort on your part to keep this board running smooth and spam free. And now we'll also have a place to upload images with none of the crap usually associated with free image sites. I Thank you (and your wife) from the bottom of my cold shriveled heart.

Many thanks Dick, your help over the years on this board and for me personally is very much appreciated. If there was an award for going the extra mile you would certainly be the one that deserves it.
