Avatars, pictures and albums are gone (showing broken pictures) and it is impossible to enter any new pictures.

My avatar is still visible (to me, anyway). I wonder what causes many avatars not to be displayed - file size, age of the file, file type?

Irrespective of that, after my issues with not being able to log in during 2025, and there being no response from any of the "official" help e-mail addresses, I wonder if anyone is actually administering this forum now, and what will happen when the domain name comes up for renewal? It certainly appears that it has been abandoned by whoever is the current owner; is there a way of finding out who owns the domain name "elsmar.com"?

EDIT: It appears to be owned by PQ Systems Inc, last registered on 2022-05-13 and due for renewal on 2031-05-13.
There is a note that the domain's details were most recently updated on November 18, 2025

I see your picture.

Ho hum.... this morning I cannot see my avatar picture, and in fact so far, I cannot see any avatar. Only the "plain" letters where people have not uploaded anything are visible, all the rest are the "missing picture" symbol

Same here. The ad above your post also only shows a broken image for me, but this has been for longer, IIRC. I also haven't seen the like/sad/... emojis you can attach to a post for some time, but they have returned from their vacation, it seems.

I'm glad I saw this thread. I hadn't been on in a while and I'm accessing from a new computer so I thought the issue was on my end.

 

[Sidney Vianna]

Issue fixed.

 

[Jake with the Calipers]

Seems fixed for me too, just had to go in to my account and update the avatar.

 

[ChrisM]

Ah - it's fixed for me this morning (UK time)

So nice to see all of you again!

The new picture looks great Roxane!
