The "Fix My COTM Winning Pics Because Photobucket Dumped All My Images" Thread

If you have ever won a COTM contest, and your pictures are via Photobucket, there is a good likelihood that your images have timed out, and your car is no longer represented with images in your **Winner** Thread or in the Winners List (sticky, this forum).

I highly recommend that everyone get off of Photobucket and find a less problematic way of keeping pictures for these forums. I have found that Facebook images last forever (they never time out), and it is a simple "copy and paste" transfer to TGO.

If your COTM winning photos have timed out or been deleted by Photobucket (or similar), and you would like your car to be visually represented as a COTM Winner (I hope that would include all who have won COTM), please do the following.

1. Upload old or new image(s) to your TGO Album, Facebook, or whatever floats your boat (preferably not Photobucket or similar again).

2. Post said image(s) to this thread along with the following information:

(2 a). The month and year of said COTM win.

(note) If you would like me to fix your **Winner** Thread along with your winner's list images, then post at least five good images, preferably with two to three different exterior angles, plus one good engine, and one good interior shot.

Follow those instructions, and I will fix your images.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

not a COTM winner but funny you say that because ive been noticing more and more of the stickies and 'how to's have timed out photobucket pics....

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Yeah, I've seen that in some of my older posts. I don't use PB anymore. I always use the "insert image" tool. I figure "most" of us are doing that, but thought I'd throw it out there because I DO see people linking to PB and other sources.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

I was linking my old photos to my own webspace, but my ISP shutdown the domain, so a lot of my photos have gone by the wayside also. Not a COTM winner though, so no need to fix any posts.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

So...my desktop computer that I use to manage COTM is kaput. But don't worry - I will fix each and every COTM Winner thread, so just keep those pics coming.

Also, I'm working on getting an LS3 in the Formula, so I'm not saying exactly when, but those threads will be fixed.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Mantaguy,


I cannot make the pictures you've submitted here any larger than they are. Is there anything you can do to make these pictures full-sized?

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Dyno Dave: Done.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Kymyee, the only issue with your pics was the October 2016 pic in the Winner's List: fixed.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

82tarecaro, there were no issues with any of your pics.


Guys, there is no need to post here if your pictures have not timed out or otherwise been deleted. Please check and make sure that there is a problem before posting your pics in this thread...that is unless I just took to long and you fixed the problem yourselves...in that case, carry on.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Thank you sir. :thumbsup:

I'll be back. Looking for interior shots....

You can still download from Photophuksus to your computer - but very slow!


Here we go, found these on my phone.

Thank you sir!

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Mantaguy,

The link you provided shows that there are no issues with the **Winner Thread**.

Also, you COTM Winners List photo is still (or is now) intact. So, no further modification on yours is necessary as far as I can tell.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Chazman, yours is fixed.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Thanks, man!

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Thank You Sir.I don't know why their still there,I'm sure they were uploaded through Photobucket:gocrazy:

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

That's odd. Most other places I used photobucket, the pics are gone.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

*Bump*


Just a reminder...

Also, remind me if you've contacted me and I still haven't fixed your thread(s).

I'm pretty sure all the images that I posted for my COTM winning Month in January 2015 were/are still hosted on my website. I just looked at the January COTM thread and all my pics seem to be displayed ?

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/auto...tm-winner.html



Are the pics not being displayed in the threads when using a particular browser ??

My Website should be "secure" (htpps://) so I doubt that is the problem !?!


:driving:

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

None of the pictures show in my old copy of Safari. Not the picture you just posted now either. I'm a cheap *** with a very old computer from 2008.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

It showed up using the oldest browser I've got,...... IE11 running on Windows 7 How about this one ?? ( I changed the actual link address from http: to https: )

https://berlinetta.info/mypics/GreenCar/Plate.jpg


:driving:

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Nope.

Sorry, I misspoke earlier. I'm not using Safari because it's so old it freezes up on this site. Limping along on a different browser for years now. Your pictures are the only pictures I can't see in this thread.

I saw the radio pictures in our IM's just fine from a few months ago.

I could boot up my Windows 7 machine but I don't think it's going to change anything.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

Weird,..... I've posted pictures & schematics using links directed at my website for years and years and never had a problem; Even now I wouldn't have know there was a problem at all if you didn't send me a heads-up. Everything looks fine on all my screens. So they question is: Since the all the OS/Browsers I currently use show all my pics without a problem ( IE 11.0.9600.19230 and Chrome 79.0.3945.88 on Windows 7 and Safari an IPhone SE on iOS 13.3 )

What platform ISN'T allowing them to appear ??

My pics are - quite literally - simple .jpg picture files on an https: server,.... doesn't get anymore basic than that.

Re: ALL COTM WINNERS PLEASE READ
 

I see it on my phone. I wouldn't sweat it any more.
