In my case: - All jpeg files that I have uploaded to PB have retained the original xxx.jpg file name - When I downloaded copies of the lot just recently, they also retained the original names. - The jpeg file name appears to be the same in each direct link as well, apart from jpeg file names that include a space. In these cases, the space is replaced with the characters '%20', Eg. ... i530.photobucket.com/albums/dd344/sneak880/General%20Stuff/white%20AU.jpg Note that the space in the album name is also replaced with the '%20' characters. In the case of a prospective upload to the AFF server, a batch editing procedure for image links may need to decypher whatever appears after the final slash in the direct link line. If the file names don't quite match exactly due to some added junk characters from PB? This may not be possible? Or, in my case, the AFF image link line could simply use the same '%20' character for a 'space' without editing the final element in the link? Given that the jpeg file names are recognisable, I would consider doing the link edits myself for my build threads if the AFF image server gets up and running and I can access an edit function to my own threads for a period of time. My main build thread is only 18 pages, so it's doable in a 'manual edit' type fashion. A different task however for those with a thread of 50 or 100 pages! Images (hosted by PB) that I have posted here and there on AFF, in all sorts of areas on the forum could not really be tracked and links replaced manually. Perhaps Russ and the AFF crew has a robot method for this type of editing, forum wide? That task is a mountain indeed, but then computers are fast with the right driver. In regards to new image hosting options, I am only considering AFF at this stage. The prospect of moving to another US based host service seems just too unreliable.
