Profile Picture

[Nobody Interesting]

I saw that my profile picture had gone yesterday so I replaced it. Today I notice everyone elses profile pictures have gone.

yeah, an upgrade screwed up the settings. I know what the problem is and how it's (in theory) fixed, tho going that route will destroy some of the existing images - so I'm waiting on the software makers to provide a 'proper' fix. I hope that'll get sorted today.

FYI: when it does get sorted, it's likely that the new pic you uploaded will be over-written with the old one.

Interestingly enough, the newly uploaded pictures are totally gone now.  I was impatient, so uploaded a new one.  No problem though, I'll just re-upload

the forum software geezers are on the case at the moment, so I guess that's their doing.

Within all of this I've just discovered that the backup routine I had for the files held at s3 stopped working a while ago, so i hope they don't mess things up.

The very annoying thing is that the python thjingy I was using for the backup no longer wants to work on the system I back up from, tho I'm not entirely sure why. One small issue of an upgrade has snowballed into loads of work.

Well at least it's alerted you to the failing backups.  Silver linings and all that!

I've just received an email to say that everything should be fixed now, tho I've yet to properly check.

Fingers crossed.
