Awesome thread, thanks for the bump. It's a shame half the early stuff is gone, but there's still plenty of goodness left in it.

This was one of my favorite threads. It was very helpful to a totally inexerienced carver. I learned alot from this one. Too bad most of the pictures are gone, they were so informative. Any chance of repopulating them?

And the same request again...is there a proper procedure for requesting a repost of pics that I don't see in the FAQ?
Thanks,
TampTiki

Unfortunately the images that show up as red X's are lost. Shutterfly had at some point migrated/renamed many of their files and those links are no longer any good. The same images will still show up on the individual users' Shutterfly accounts, but the file names are now different than what was originally posted here. The only way to repopulate the images would be for each of the original posters to edit their old posts and replace the images. Not impossible, but it would take a concerted effort on the part of many. You will notice the same problem with the "Carving Post" locked at the top of this Forum, which is also a real shame.
Many of the old Shutterfly links have become broken, but then again many of them are still in place. And it's not just Shutterfly links that have been affected, but they have had the biggest effect because 90% of the older images posted here were linked to Shutterfly accounts. Remember, outside image hosting is inherently less reliable than using the Tiki Central "Add Images To Your Post!" feature, so we'd encourage members to use that route when posting images moving forward.
Here's a thought. For all of the Creating Forum users who have "Here's my Work" type threads, consider doing some editing to convert the images over to TC hosting. It's a little work, but the images will be there as long as TC is up & running, and you can avoid those pesky red X's.
Cheers,
A-A

I have tried reposting some of the pictures lost in Shutterfly and the big problem is , for me, there are SO Many pictures that I have No Idea which ones Were posted. There is No link to tell me what picture belongs to the little red X. However I may just post a Lump of pictures at the end of each segment of the thread. OR I may just post a thread of All my pictures.

I could live with that. I'm eager to try out carving, but first I have to find some wood. and get my workshop/garage cleaned out. But mostly the wood.
