Z15 Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 I am getting bad links from the BM gallery images. A few show up but the rest show as dead links. Anyone else notice this? Gallery Mike Survey Tech (Retired) Quote
+Zhanna Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 Yes, and I was just about to ask the same question. The thumbnail images themselves don't show up, and the links to the benchmark pages return the “This page cannot be displayed” error. Furthermore, try searching (from the main benchmark page) for one of the PIDs with a missing gallery image. I've done this for several marks, and on none of the pages did I see the benchmark hunter's log! Am I missing something, or have recently-entered logs been lost somehow? I have at least 15 more logs to enter, but I'm not going to attempt to upload any of them until this is addressed and fixed. Zhanna Quote
+embra Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 Happycycler, what are you doing? Yours are the *only* ones where I could access thumbnails and pictures...all others as described above. Max Often wrong but seldom in doubt Quote
BeachBum22 Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 If you notice, the 404 pictures aren't benchmark pictures, they are Geocache pictures. Looks like the Geocache photos are getting mixed up with the benchmark stuff. I sent an email to the admin people about three days ago to let them know there's a problem, so they should be aware of it. It seems to have happened when they updated the "Log a Cache" page. See the Geocaching Announcements forum for info. BeachBum22 http://www.benchmarkhunting.com Just because I can't find it doesn't mean it's not really there. Quote
+happycycler Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 Beats me! I seldom know what I am doing. I don't think that I am doing anything different now.... Everybody loves benchmarks more! Quote
BeachBum22 Posted October 1, 2003 Posted October 1, 2003 Maybe the admin guys see things here sooner than they do if you send them email.... The cache pictures are gone from the benchmark gallery page, but there still seems to be a problem with logs. In the gallery, there are two pictures of KS0445 from a log by BackPak. If you click either of the KS0445 links, or either of the pictures, you get a "page can not be displayed" error. Also if you look up KS0445 by PID, you see no log/pictures from BackPak (or anyone else). BeachBum22 http://www.benchmarkhunting.com Just because I can't find it doesn't mean it's not really there.

I emailed BackPak about your findings and he replied:Sorry about this misinformation I did delete the info because I thought I was typing the information in for BM - AE9839. Guess that clears up that problem forKS0445. Compare to AE9839. 1950 Surveyor Quote
BeachBum22 Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 Maybe when the log got deleted, the pictures didn't, I don't know, but the KS0445 pictures are still in the gallery, with broken links: http://www.geocaching.com/mark/benchmark_album.asp?start=264 Click thru a few pages if you can't find them, they're moving up the list. Probably something the admin guys would want to look at..... BeachBum22 http://www.benchmarkhunting.com Just because I can't find it doesn't mean it's not really there. Quote
