Op 20 Jui 2017 was ik klaar met de reparatie van deze site. / On July 20th 2017 I was done repairing this site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Special Note :
Afgelopen Vrijdag ( 30 Juni 30 )werd ik geconfronteerd met een mailtje van Photobucket.com. Op deze server heb ik ongeveer zo n 80 % van alle foto’s voor de sites geparkeerd.
Ben er 10 jaar geleden mee begonnen en nooit geen problemen. In dit mailtje stond dat men geen toestemming gaf om de daar geparkeerde foto’s voor een web site te gebruiken.
Maar ze geven wel de Embedded HTML code for the foto. Prompt waren de meeste foto’s niet meer zichtbaar. Ben nu begonnen met herstel werkzaamheden en de foto’s op andere
betrouwbare servers te zetten. Zal daar lange tijd mee bezig zijn. Op de plaats waar een foto ontbreekt staat de de vermelding : "plse update yr account to enable 3rd party hosting“.
Ik hoop dat ik er snel in slaag om de zaak weer up to date te krijgen en vraag iedereen even geduld te hebben.
Een X achterr het item in een Index betekend, gerepareerd !!!
