I agree.............. Posted some really cool photos only to have them disappear. I don't know what's up?

 

That's right, I said it.

Hi chosen - OK, this one's nothing to do with us, and is going to be a little tough to explain since there's a "techie" bit and a "politeness" bit.

I'll start with the techie bit.  when your browser makes a request, one of the things it tells the server is how it got to whatever it's requesting - the
"referrer."

Your post included a reference to a photo hosted on another site (www.gassigns.org).  When someone's web browser sees your post and hits that image it goes off to www.gassigns.org and says "I came from www.neighborhoodlink.com and I'd like this image..."

So the image is coming from another server (www.gassigns.org); every time someone views your post they request the image from www.gassigns.org.

That's the techie bit.  Next post I'll see if I can explain the politeness bit.
