• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Nice idea!

I'm sitting at the Toyota dealership getting the Tacoma serviced and they tell me there is no tread left on the tires so..............

:p

I am pretty happy with the way it works for trimming tires.

Your picture seems to be missing.
 
What causes that Coffee? I noticed that some pictures of Robertaccio"s went away after only a couple of days. Does Photobucket somehow reclaim them? Just wondering

I believe if people delete pics the message says 'deleted/no longer available' and if it violated some type of Terms of Service like a copyright issue there is a separate message that indicates that.

My hunch is people are deleting pics, probably because they think they have served their purpose and can now be deleted. Thing is - threads live forever so later they make less sense without the pics. This thread is a good example.


I've changed my mind, I'll just go ahead and get new tires for the Tacoma LOL...
 
Well, the picture you referred to as "missing" is one I posted and unless my alzheimer's is more acute than I think it is, I sure didn't delete it.

I owe you an apology. First of all I did not realize you were the person that had made the post with the missing picture. Second of all I had no idea that it was out of your control. Please accept my apology.


I've got no idea what happened. I believe all of my pics continue to work, but all I ever do is put up pics and never touch them again.

Photobucket sounds confused. :confused:
 
Hey Coffee, there is no reason to apoligize. I have been cuious about this for sometime. On another website I posted some pictures awhile back, that were gone within an hour. The same Photobucket TM in their place. At the time I thought that a moderator, for some reason did it. So when I saw your post saying "your picture is gone" I knew you (as a moderator) didn't do it. Thats all.
But, I still wonder what happens to them. :thumbsup:

My wild guess is your account is screwed up for some reason, mine works well. If it were me I'd start another photobucket account.

If you would like to discuss this further it would probably be best to start up a thread in Coffee Talk or PM me.
