No images showing

[VWatchie]

Someone just made me aware that no images are showing in my post (

). Could someone with the proper permissions check this? I believe the images are ones I uploaded to the site, but they could also be ones I shared from my OneDrive, which had an issue some time ago.

The site appears to be on the glitch in general.

Edit

Looking at it now I'd say due to the age of the post they've been dumped from the server.

Yes, I've noticed that the response times are getting slower and are more frequent than they used to be. Perhaps the site is running out of space? Maybe some maintenance and/or more space is required. I'm sure we'd all be happy to contribute if there's a cost. @Mark, Please let us know if there's something we can do! After all, your site has become our second home

What a coincidence, I was very bummed to find that thread absent of photos just yesterday! I am servicing a Hamilton 694A and it would have been a great resource. 

Edit: I would be willing to pitch in to recover archived data here. I dont contribute much as I don't have the experience but I read through old threads all day at work prepping for the evenings project. 

 

This is what the corner of my monitor looks like all day

Hi guys.

@VWatchie Those images are self hosted (not hosted on this server). Do a look at the page source and you will see this. I’m afraid, I can’t have control or backup images not hosted on this server.

( They seem to be served from here: https://qehvsw.bn.files.1drv.com/)

This server is backed up fully every night and the database is backed up and versioned every hour, all stored off site on Amazon S1 platform. It’s hard for us to lose data.

Ive got a huge overhead of space on this particular server the site is served from so no worries there

Sorry all for lack of response so far, I have been extremely busy and am embarrassed to say that priorities had to be set in place for a while.  Be assured that i’ve got constant monitoring and alerts should the site be in an extended problematic state (down etc) and work on these issues if they arise.

This thread went wildly off topic. Cleaned up.
