**Updates to the site**

Hey Phat, I just checked my DM's and they seem to all be there. Once you login you should see your username on the top right. There will be an Envelope icon. If you click on the envelope you will see "Show All" and "Send Direct Message." Use "Show All" to display all of your historical messages. I hope this helps, let us know what you find.
 
Everyone check the media! Are your albums back now?

Next on the list better integration of the website menu with the forum menu.
 
Then figure out the gallery, we need to get bigshrimpin s pictures back up but we can not figure out how the "gallery" was managed or images credited, if anyone can remember back that far? We have the images, but I don't just want to upload a gajillion images to a single page, any feedback would be appreciated.

I clicked on "Media" and looked through 48 pages of pics but didn't see any of mine. Am I doing it right?

I think what was going on prior is you had an upload to a page called "Gallery" that was not part of the forum but rather a place one of the original admins displayed pictures. We have all of those pictures. We are trying to figure out if they can be put into a "pipe_dream" folder/album or if there is any way to organize them. I think that is where your pictures are. Same for bigshrimpin and blue_runner.

The original forum software was not managed in a traditional way and that's ok. We just have to figure out how it was run so we can put everything back into place. Traditional way would be to upload your pics to your personal media gallery so everyone can see. We seem to have a combination of that and this "gallery" it will be sorted this week I think .

Nothing is lost!

V21 gallery? Please describe to me where these galleries were and what was in them we have all the data we just have to organize it and display it
 
Each Gallery had the owners screen name above it. I'm guessing that format is no longer available?
 
We have now sorted the titles based on number of messages.

Prior

New

If you want these changed or new titles, or number of posts changed, Let me know what you decide.

This is very helpful! We are trying to figure out how to replicate the prior format. Do you have more information? How were you able to upload the pictures? It was not within the forum itself I dont think. Any other feedback will be very helpful!

I thought there was a button to "mark all forums read", but I don't see that anymore, just the one for the section you are on
 
Dave you had to have a host site like Photobucket or Imgur. I, like most others started with Photobucket but as of late have been using IMGUR. Photobucket was no longer a free service.
 
Once you clicked on the lead photo in the gallery it opened up to all the other photo's you uploaded.
 
Those pics in the Media section I don't think I recognize. Maybe they were posted in the regular forum section years ago?

So you uploaded the pictures to Photobucket then displayed them on the website using a link or a feed?

Why do that as opposed to just using the media section on the forum?

Right now we're trying to figure out if we can identify who those pictures belong to.
 
I never had a gallery,so no real knowledge. But i remember you had to ask MJ to give you one. When u went to the Gallery section. There were about 9 or 12 thumbnails per page. To view, you clicked on the thumbnail.

Are the brochures going inthe history section
