Where did that photo go?

Posted by Jessica Daugherty

Tonight and for the next few weeks you will notice photographs on our blog temporarily disappearing as we move some content to the blogger server.

<----Feel free to skip over the details. It's boring.---->

Our blog has been so popular that keeping the content hosted on the Barksdale site is using up too much of our allotted bandwidth. Although the blog will continue on as usual, we moved the blog pages over to blogger last week (you may have noticed that the blog links now take you to http://thebarksdalebuzz.blogger.com instead of a page on our own site). Now the bandwidth-hogging graphics have to move over as well. While the photos are being deleted from our server and added to the blogger server, you could see some broken photo icons and/or some blank spaces where photos used to be.

Also, as I republish all these posts, those of you who subscribe to our blog may see our past posts appear in your feed as new. All should be back to normal by Wednesday or Thursday [ok - I lied - still a work in progress as of 8/17] although some of our oldest posts may end up with fewer photos in the end.

<----Start reading again here.---->

Thanks, and sorry for any inconvenience.

One of my favorite parts of the Barksdale blog is the photos (are the photos?). I'm glad to see they're up and running, and I look forward to their return in the archives. Thanks for the great work.
