Quote from: Light DragonI wonder why images occasionally disappear from Image Shack? The same issue has happened before in other threads.

Image Shack is just not a particularly good platform for image-hosting anymore, at least not for the average user. Broken links, seemingly random size-changes, images just being deleted, etc. It's a shame because I used it for Underdeep, and the old threads look terrible - everything is distorted or missing. It would have been nice having an "image" of the game even if it was no longer active (I do still have the original images for that too, but still). You now need a paid account to use Imageshack fully, and there are other (free, dependable) file-hosting services out there. It's kind of bizarre - I don't know how they think they can charge when there are so many free options out there. Maybe it makes sense for certain users, I don't know.

I'm not sure why anyone uses Imageshack now, it's pretty awful.

You might consider using the CBG's own hosting.  When I complained about imgur compressing large image files I was using for RR a year or so ago, Nomadic told me to just upload it to the CBG Wiki.  I've done that with big RR maps ever since.
