My apologies, it was something that I did. The albums have been rebuilt and show display correctly.

Shawn will I be able to join my member album from a previous username(jwoodsie) into a new album. There are a couple of pictures in that old album I would like to keep as I had a hard drive die on me last year, hence the new username.
I had a few problems with logons and stuff with the old one thats why I created a new persona,

Thanks Shawn, the albums look great.

Can you give us any hints about how the old albums will integrate into these new ones?

I can't seem to find a way to move an existing picture into an album that was created after the pic was uploaded, other than delete the pic and reupload it.

Shawn,

As one of the RAT Pack Leaders in charge of the RAT Pack Photo Album and heavy users of my member maintained photo album, I was thinking that I might be one of the few that you mentioned in your previous post that would maintain access to the original albums. I don't see any way to access either. Am I just dense or do I not have access? If not, does this mean that I will have to start new Albums for the Indy RAT Racers and for myself?

The Photo Gallery link is presently disabled because I'm still working on the conversion of the old albums. The RAT Pack albums have been moved over already, but there are still a significant amount of remaining data to move.

As previously posted, this information is being retained but will reside in a separate Photo Album system. The system the photos are being converted to is a significant upgrade of the original system that supported the albums before. It will have many advantages, and when they are back online, they will be viewed within the TriumphRat.Net Portal.

While the developer of both the original and the new Photo Gallery versions are the same. A few years ago the decision was made to not support as many forum/portal platforms as they had. As a result, the new system isn't integrated with the new TriumphRat.Net's user and permissions system.

Again, I'll be able to integrate these separate albums into TriumphRat.Net and users will be able to browse them as they did before. It will perform faster than it did, and have many improvements.

The reason for allowing just a few to admin and make changes is that it will require a separate login/profile. So myself, some moderators, RAT Pack Leaders, and a few others will be the only individuals capable of uploading pictures or making any modifications.

It is certainly not fun to support two different Photo Album systems, but after struggling with this for a few years I had to accept that there simply wasn't a better way. There are Photos in the original albums that are too important.

Hope this helps,

When looking at my member album I am seeing other member's pics mixed in with mine. I am hesitant to do anything with them because I do not want to delete someone else's pics. Any advice?
