+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 The last couple of days, I havent seen any banner photos on the home page of geocaching. Just a big white space and nothing to click when I hover the mouse over it. Is it just me or is this happening to everyone? Are the banner photos gone for good?
+Lil Devil Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 Looks fine for me, except I see an advertisement in the larger pane
+pppingme Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 It seems that the picture is currently being served off of their "banman5" server, which is a "well known" ad server, and is probably blocked by most ad blocking software. My guess is that they did this so pics on the main page wouldn't die while they take weeks to copy the images from an old image server to a new one. From another post, there is about 1tb of data on the image server, so I'm not sure why its a production of weeks to copy this over, all of my servers can copy 1tb of data from another server in a matter of hours, not weeks. You said the problem started a couple days ago, and thats about the time they fired up the new server.
+luckycharmer Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 1/3 photo and 2/3 advertisements. Like seeing photos better.
+Ambrosia Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 When I click on the smaller banner image, it just takes me to the log for that picture. I can't access all the past pictures anymore.
