    Anyway, as if this moment, it's now turned ON for these announcement "help" type threads and you should see results of your tests ...

    By the way, since your original PhotoBucket test image doesn't exist and gets a response from them "Page not found", there's nothing for the anti-virus import software to do except show PhotoBucket's default "missing" pic. If it couldn't find that or there was some other anomaly in an external host reponse, then it would use an internal default pic that looks like this:

    Ach, folk do the strangest things, don't they?



    Testing seems a success

    Giant thank you for the photo conversions! Eliminates one worry and several concerns.


    ETA:

    I have just better organized about 150-200 photos that were getting hard to find, so I hope your new software had run through a couple of years worth of posts!

    Yes, it went back to October 2006 and processed all posts in relevant forums forward to today, so if the pics were on the original host in the last week, they are now protected and stored internally here for posterity ..
