Problem with pics

nicki12 · 11-01-2007, 07:13 PM

I love going on to the scrapbook forums and sometimes(most of the time) when poeple post their pics or layouts all I see are red Xs, other times when people put a link that is DWT it say in big black letters that it is "Not Found" does anybody know how I can fix these problems? Thanks!

If they are in older threads, the DWT links may be 'broken'
There was a change to the way the forums were set up and how the photos were referenced, which made a mess of the old threads.

For example, the links used to be http://www.disneyworldtrivia.com/pho...lecontest2.jpg
but now are http://www.disneyworldtrivia.com/for...lecontest2.jpg

If you can see the address of the 'broken' photo, add the /forums before the /photos, you should be able to see the picture.

Thanks! But what about the red Xs?

Not sure, but most likely those were photos posted on another image hosting site that are no longer there. Can you PM me with a post you're getting the X's on?

As I just posted in the scrapbook forum, the pictures have been removed from the hosting site. This is why you are getting the X

The Scrapbook site also has a lot of broken links from the last upgrade that haven't been fixed.
