Hi, i can't open the pictures you guys post on the forum, what picture opener do you use, or what else may be the problem?

If you mean attached pictures from before February 4 (or thereabouts), the problem is they were lost in the server change.

The files were corrupted during the server change. It's a long story but basically two things failed:

1. My ex-hosting provider
2. Bug in Filezilla FTP software

Now neither of these fails by itself wouldn't be a big problem, but when combined together it's a total disaster.

I'm still trying to fix this problem but there is a chance that all the attached pictures during that one month time are gone for good. I can't even express how much that sucks but what can you do.

This is why I love the new dedicated server. No more amateur hosting providers deleting our files by mistake.
