ALL images seem to be deleted to me. I see red text everywhere
Is it my browser? Are you guys re-doing everything?

Hey, Juances.

"There are currently issues with uploading new versions of images already on the wiki.
(The issue is being looked into. Please do NOT reupload or revert it several times as it will not help.)"

This is what I got when I double checked. Click on a pic, you'll get the same thing. Maybe they're trying to fix pics... or maybe the wiki is just screwed up. I'll try uploading and see what I get.

hmm

I agree that many of the images are suddenly missing. I just noticed it a few hours ago.

Mahatma-Gandhi's statement is true, but not relevant. The "issues" he mentions have existed for over a year, and relate to how image files are updated on the wiki --- not whether images display at all, which seems to be a new problem.

Not my quote Bopp

I was restating what I found on the wiki. However, the wiki seems to have changed overnight with pretty much EVERY SINGLE PIC.

yes, I know

Mahatma-Gandhi, I know that you were quoting that text, rather than writing that text yourself. My point is that the current image displaying problem is about one day old, whereas that text has been on the wiki for years. To put it another way: If you went to the wiki one week ago, when images were displaying properly, and you clicked on an image, then you would see exactly that same text. So that text is not a response to, or explanation for, the current image displaying problem. Cheers.

This happened before, as a note: DO NOT REUPLOAD ANYTHING FOR IT WILL NOT WORK.

This is usually caused by their image host being down.

They should all be back up within a day or two.
