Lost pictures of old

[John]

I know it was a big issue losing so many of the old pictures, and VB was never going to finish the update, so I've uploaded them all to a new gallery, the link is in the navbar, they are in some sort of order, although I'm not sure what, but at least they are there is anyone want's to go through them.

It will take me ages to upload them, and I'm doing it from work, so will only upload when I'm here, keep checking over the next week

at the time of posting this I have uploaded 5890 pics, only another 329947 to go

[Mr Bowcat]

Appreciate the effort John.

All the images have now been uploaded, have fun looking through them

[PaulTRose]

So is each folder say a forum months worth of pics?.

[Gern]

Thanks for your sterling work there John. Can someone please tell me how to view the images? I've looked at the first 300+ but can't get to the next pages.

Thanks John for the effort in uploading the images. Is there a search function to pin point the genre and specific image that I want to see?
I'd like to replace larger images to my old build blogs, is there a way to let me edit them?

Cheers,

I don't think it's that straightforward, I don't know how they are sorted.

There are 385 directories, just click in one of them to show more pictures.

Unfortunately not, when they get uploaded they are renamed, the file name might be something like, 23453-effffarerfq4f5asaerttvvr.jpg, then 23454-542wer5a4featfwee.jpg, once you find one all the pictures from that post should be all together

Excellent work John, some cracking images in there, even found a couple of my builds in the mix..(so far...) ????

I have managed to find a way to find your pictures, thanks to ChatGPT, what a clever piece of software.

I have a spreadsheet with all the information in, you can download it from the attachment


When you open it you can filter by your name


You will see the thread titles, you can search the forum using that



You will also see the file names, in this case

133/133409-a6bc9c4d2c1434c4f316374ce2e4a144.jpg
133/133410-a6805695cf8e9ca1a47124553b02b9a5.jpg
133/133408-21a3fc9669c6ce86b45fe928ffc83964.jpg

The first number 133 is the directory, once in the directory you can search for the file starting 133409, 133410 & 133408

If anyone does want to update their thread let me know and I will change the editing time for everyone.

Thanks John, very handy.
