    Photos Disappearing From Gallery?

    Has anyone had any photos disappear from the gallery? I don't recall any reports of this but I just noticed two recent photos of mine that were there yesterday are now gone. It could be a moderator mistake but I'm wondering if anyone else has missing photos.

    I haven't noticed anything disappearing from the gallery, but on a positive note, the last two images that I posted in the forum made it to my gallery. I did notice that they didn't go in right away. There was a message that said something to the affect of 'waiting to be approved'. Is that something new? Is someone monitoring images and approving them before they become available in the gallery?

    Yes, everything needs to be approved now. Over the past few days we had a spam comment attack that was so bad the only way to deal with it was to require approval for everything in the gallery. It's a shame but at the moment it has to be done.

    The forum photo upload problem is sporadic so you got lucky this time

    John,

    I still can't see the link to our individual user gallery under our avatar. It's not obvious how to get to a person's gallery otherwise. Are you (or anyone else) seeing that link?

    No it isn't a link there any more and YES I wish it would be put back. The way I get to look at my gallery is go to SHARE, Photo Gallery then My Photos on the left end of the second blue tool bar, Jeff

    Thanks Jeff. Using these instructions I can see my gallery. I also see that my recent uploads have not been added to the gallery. It appears that this website update has unintentionally 'bugged up' that , and maybe other stuff too.

    Re: Photos Disappearing From Gallery?

    I haven't been around much lately, and I am not certain when it happened, but a bunch of my gallery photos were re arranged, lost, and feedback changed recently.

    I also miss the user gallery link. And I don't know if it's related, or when it appeared, or even what it means, but there is a bulleted "like" link at the bottom of every post in a thread now.
