Good day everyone.
More and more images are not showing up for products.
I keep seeing the following:
"Image Not Found Or Was Removed"
Does anyone know why this keeps happening?
I personally believe it has something to do with the attacks that are currently going on. It is happening with product links and image links.
Try IMGUR instead.
@Littlepleasures
".....that comes with the risk of any content connected to the associated account and/or IP range being deleted/banned."So would you say using a VPN would be wise in these circumstances if IP addresses are being tracked. It's certainly worth trying on Postimg to see if it makes a difference.
How is using a VPN while posting going to help when all I have to do is
1 goto ZoneGFX
2 NOT log in
3 hit 'All Post'
4 right click on every picture I see to get the image link?YOU KNOW - the SEARCH even works on ZoneGFX if I am not logged in.
How about tightening up the ability to use the website if not logged in as a member? That might help, but is only a thing @Hunter can do.
I've got a questions guys...
Is there any reason why ZoneGFX does not host the post images themselves?
To me, it seems like "PostImage Free Image Hosting" is actually getting worse.
If you guys know the reason, let me know. Thanks.
On one side the space, on the other side that exactly what is happening now with the pictures on PostImage will happen here but with more severe consequences
The PostImage are just getting deleted because a jerk that is illegally selling his stuff as well without any remorse is on a crusade against us due to us hosting his crappy stuff here. If we were to host the images here, he could actually attack our webhost and the webhost would be required to shut the site down if there are too many complains. Right now with the hosting on PostImage that danger is a lot less likely because the site is just showing embedded stuff and provides links to the assets, not hosting them directly on the web host.
DMCA can and will hit hard in the wrong situations
We might have to move offshore to places that don't respond to image takedown requests... like Russia/Belarus 🏴☠️.
Are there any other services that ZoneGFX can use, other than PostImage?
Because the more pages I browse, the more instances of "missing images" I encounter.
Good question vlweb3d. The instructions say...
"Upload Your Image at Postimages.org site. Just past the link with .JPG or .PNG extension, Or else image will not work. ** Warning : Dont use other image hosting please."But it also says....
"Please upload your image at Postimages.org or Imgur.com"I don't know why these were chosen. Maybe there was a good reason for that, but in light of the problem we're experiencing perhaps that needs to change.
