Nope, havent had time to look at it. Had family over and they just left Monday and I am leaving on vacation this Friday so been running around like crazy. I will be working on it this weekend, at least thats the current plan. So just have 10 days to finish :|

There was just a slight glitch.
I was in the VS thread and I saw three posts that were Candice related, I thought that odd - I removed the content, but once I hit the submit button and the page refreshed - Candice's posts in the VS thread disappeared.
I went into Candice's thread to see what was going on and my edited posts (from the VS thread) were in Candice's thread... O.o It looks like a couple of Candice's posts "bled" into the VS thread and then went 404 missing.
I'll keep an eye out to see if it happens again.

Well its scanning all 4.5million ish posts. So in the 8 hours since its currently at 1million. So if it keeps up this rate it will be ~100 hours (4 days). So I will keep an eye out. Hopefully it doesnt have any issues as we are cutting it close.
Just for reference it has downloaded 270252 images so far (26gb of files).

~900k posts left. 160gb downloaded. If it held steady at the current rate it would be done in 24 hours. Then I need to add the most recent like 100k posts and process those. We shall see how it goes.

Awesome MD, thanks for all your efforts.

@maddog107 Did we end up getting all of the imagebam and imgbox images?

It looks like quite a few imgbox images didn't make the transfer, as far as I can see.
Any idea what the cut-off is in terms of age of posts, Maddog?

So it was my understanding that imagebox/imgbam was bough out so no images were deleted? I have downloaded them but I have not done the replacement yet with the images I have now on disk. Did all the images disappear?
The really old one are probably naturally deleted by them (or any image hoster in general) if they havent been viewed in X days.

Some semi-recent ones seem to be very patchy in their availability. They waver between showing up and giving an error.

Do you have a sample link? I will be working on the switching over to the local images sometime this week and we will get a good guage as to how many we actually managed to capture.

The images hosted on imgbox in this Charlie Austin post didn't work the last time I tried them but they seem to work now.

A quick enquiry, if I may be so bold. Does anyone know if it's possible to change a model's thumbnail image from within their topic? I've a request to change a few but all I have are the links. ![]()

Nope, ill ask the dev to see if he can add that feature. Right now I usually bump the thread and then change it from the main page.
And FYI im finally back at home
so I should be a lot more active. Been MIA for a couple of months.

Not sure, but I'm already getting nostalgic for the stretch where no-one was able to post. ![]()
