Hello y'all.
This is definitely a labor of love. I personally have logged about 250 hours over the last few months trying to fix the attachments issue. We've even employed the support of the manufacturer of the VBulletin software to help us, and that gave no cigar.
At the moment, the issue is that somehow during the several server moves we did, the user numbers and the corresponding pictures attached to them have become mismatched.
This is incredibly complex and after fooling with it and how long it took to fix 1 picture, I figure it will be somewhere in the realm of another 1,000+ hours to rectify.
I might be able to find some new attachment addon, however Vbulletin 4 (which we are using) has become outdated, and most support for it has been canceled.
That being said: What would you like to do? These are the current choices, either we must use a third party picture host like imgur, or photobucket ( I am happy to write a guide for you on how to use them. ) Or we need to start the forum over. A whole new one. From scratch. And MAYBE we can import the data back in over time.
I think it would be nice if the old pictures were still available.
But, I think it is much more important if we could start posting new pictures asap, like before. Then if someday, the older pictures could be revived - even better.
Not being able to post pics easily like before is not a good thing for this site. I'll leave it at that.

Let's go forward and if ever we can resurrect the old stuff that would be nice but not the end of the world if we can't.

First off thanks for all the hours you have put in to try and fix the sites problems.I say start over with a fresh site.Were all grown ups here we can live without the old pics if we have to.I don't pay for the use of this site so I feel it would be out of place to bitch about problems others are investing there time to fix for free.Do what is easiest for you.
Sure, posting pictures directly to this site would be easy and great. But keep in mind, we members don't pay any fees and other than the picture issues, this board works great. Great place for newbies to gain great information and for everyone to exchange lots of thoughts, rides, etc. I've run a couple of boards before and it takes time from the administrators (donated time).
So, from me:
Many Thanks!
Merry Christmas!!!
