Quote:Yahoo Photos was closed last year, users were told well in advance and given the choice to move their pics to Flickr, Kodak Gallery, Photobucket, Snapfish or Shutterfly. Yahoo made it clear that all remaining photo accounts would be deleted after October and that any photos still remaining would be erased with no chance of recovery, sorry...

S.O.L. *sigh*

The rule of thumb should be never count on any online services to keep your data. Only by keeping it locally on hard drives or usb sticks can you count on it being there. You can't count on CD's or DVD's either, I went through nine year old CD's the other day and 8 out of 10 no longer worked.

uh huh. I've got a bunch of CD's that have the reflective silver coating is peeling.
That was the only inexpensive "long term" way to store data 10 or so years ago.
It was a false sense of security.

I have well over a hundred cd's, more like well over two hundred, store bought and burned and most of them are at least 5 to 10 years old and even older and they all still look fine and play flawlessly and maybe that's because I keep them clean, although I've never cleaned the surface of any of them with anything other than my breath and a soft cloth and out of the sun light and extreme heat of a closed vehicle, inside a clear plastic and black vinyl cd/dvd holder carrying case?

Mine were treated the same and pealed.
I think I purchased some defective CD's.

Mine falls under breaking down of disc materials, e.g. de-bonding of adhesives between layers

<blockquote class="imgur-embed-pub" lang="en" data-id="a/A6KDN"><a href="//imgur.com/A6KDN"></a></blockquote><script async src="//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Also remember to add the s to http = https

But that link is fkd up in some other ways too, it doesn't work. I usually just right click on top of the image, choose 'copy image location' from the menu and just add the s to make it https. That works with imgur only though, so far.

I would blow everyones minds away with the ultra strange photo that I want to turn into a thread...

A totally bizarre and terrifying image that mysteriously appeared upon the side of my grandmothers house as it burned down a few weeks ago

But I don't know how to remove the picture from my yahoo archives as a cut and pasteable link to transfer here...

And let me tell ya right now, it aint pareidolia, its really there...

**Octo** · 05-14-2017, 10:09 AM

Did you delete all other instances of the photo after you uploaded to yahoo? You can always take a screenshot of your yahoo photo and upload to imgur or even send it to me and I'll do it for you.

thank you Octo~

I see it!
This won't be too much longer, over the course of the next few months most sites should make the change.
Browsers are already flagging http sites as non secure.
