    Hi all,
    I just noticed flickr hotlinked photos are broken again. I think this is a local issue rather than with flickr - any idea if something changed recently that might have triggered this? Any idea if it can be fixed?

    Hi, Calvin.
    I will forward this on to Brent and see what can be done.

    We are working on moving to a new server that will hopefully resolve this issue.

    Could a Flickr user please test this?

    Thank you for trying to fix this issue. coupled several threads of mine, and I think a few relatively recent posts are not fixed yet.

    For example, I noticed the problems in the following threads:
    Utricularia macrorhiza
    Cattleya coccinea

    Images are not displayed, but when I click the link below the icon with X, it goes to the correct page except for the first link.

    For the first link in the 2nd thread (Cattleya coccinea), somehow the BBcode got screwed up. Cattleya coccinea

    I posted the same BBcode to SlipperTalk, and I can see photos there, so the Flickr servers are working.

    My old threads are now fixed - Not sure why some of Naoki's are messed up still, while others like this one are now working
