Loving the New Site!

[Neilski]

most images I've posted in various threads and pms have been removed, reducing many of my posts to useless clutter and ruining a year(s) long progress log in the process

This shouldn't have happened - please share a link or two (or start a new thread here in the "Website Feedback & Support" forum) to show us what you mean.

Thanks, here's a few links to posts that show what I'm describing.

cater to things being a certain way and not worry about all the permutations SimLab's direct drive wheel stand also employs crippled extrusions, motivating my DIY that cost more.

Had my visit to the Apple Store. The Apple guy was very helpful and stayed with me through the entire face scanning process. I told him exactly what I was doing and why and he seemed to think it was pretty cool. I used this phone. Verified my IPD at the Optometrist since the office was close...

Non staff member here ... looks to me like the images are coming from discord (links), do these images still exist in the discord im wondering? Or it could be a permission issue despite the hash?

You beat me to it
The images are gone from the Discord server, some time ago by the looks of it.
One of the images was https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/972180323787997255/1087148842278977636/IMG_1076.jpg
which now gives an error "This content is no longer available."
(Gosh, before today I had soo many reasons to dislike Discord. Looks like I just added another )

What's weird is when I go to the discord they are posted on I still see the pics there.

Non staff member here, ive done some digging and you are not the only one who is having this problem.

We knew discord has been planning to change the way it deals with its images and linking to them for a while now and by the looks of things its changed.

"Discord No Longer Supports Images, Alternative Image Hosting Site? Discord has changed how they handle image links and the like now, granting them temporary links for a couple of days before changing. They say it's to combat malware, but it also stops it from being an image hosting area. 29 Feb 2024"

Discord No Longer Supports Images, Alternative Image Hosting Site? | Royal Road

Discord has changed how they handle image links and the like now, granting them temporary links for a couple of days before changing. They say it's to combat malware, but it also stops it from being an image hosting area. All of my images were on there, as there weren't any issues with it before...

Additional Confirmation...

Discord Image Link Integration is completely broken right now

I don't know if something happened on discord's end or the forum's end, but it resulted in thousands of pictures being deleted and replaced with "this content is no longer available", which makes reading mission reports and other forum threads a lot worse Especially for others trying to maintain ...

Hope it helps, looks like its time to find a more permanent image host.

You can perhaps test this, recopy the link and post the image link. If the images stop working after a short period of time you know whats up.

Not loving the new site.

Besides the jarring palette swap most images I've posted in various threads and pms have been removed, reducing many of my posts to useless clutter and ruining a year(s) long progress log in the process.

We have literally not removed a single image. Did you upload any images or link them from a 3rd party website?

 

[mechsicko]

Thanks. Not being able to see the pics any more I can't say for certain where they're from but most likely were posted from discord. I was assuming something happened during the move but I only went to retrieve some after and found most images I've posted are now gone so it's possible they were already gone. I can't find any discord posts with missing images I think they're from but it's increasingly sounding like something is going on with discord regarding image hosting

The profile tab labels seem a bit too dark, to me - sorry. This is the Overtake Dark theme.

Agreed. This has already been noted and I believe that a fix is inbound

Appreciate ads etc are a necessary evil, but with the change has come a lot of white space. It's given off 90s web feel, anything you can do about it? It's hurting my delicate eyes lol

Edit: Adding a screenshot, the links at the top need to be a different colour to be able to see them.

If I'm honest, the old one was better.

Neither of these issues have been addressed at all - the first one was reported over a month ago.

Are staff even reading this?

 

[mechsicko]

Moza's new advertising blitz here is so intrusive it has me regretting recently buying gear from them. Luckily someone posted how to defeat the new awful css spam.. I'd been avoiding this site since that started

 

[Neilski]

Yup, I've just flagged it for attention (not sure why it wasn't already sorted).

^^ these should now be fixed - please let us know if not.

^^ this one is still awaiting a fix, however.
Edit: nope, it's fixed now I believe
