Bottom line: The HDDs of the attachment server failed. All attachments are lost.

There were no backups of the attachment server's HDDs, since that would only have added to the already high monthly cost.
The ads weren't even covering the basic server fee.

So I'm afraid the attachments are lost as well as files on imagizmo.com

So what now?
Improved forum, but without attachment support.
All the posts that previously had attachments will now be deleted.
This allows for easier conversion to a new forum software.

I know, this sucks.
But FamousBoard will live!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Sad

Oh well, we have the technology; we shall rebuild it. Better, faster, stronger.

So does this mean that from here on, we need to use an external host and post links to the pics?

possibly not related but several other fake oriented forums have suffered major downtime in recent weeks.

Can an administrator or owner please let me know what the bandwidth requirements, and data storage needs would be? If I have a better idea of the resources I might have a couple shining ideas.

I don't mind 3rd party image hosts but I think it really puts the community out there, more vulnerable to spam, excessive advertisements and potential security threats. I know of a couple companies that offer great deals on their hosting systems, and have experience putting those kinds of systems in order. If anything in my head could help the cause, I would like it to.

Let's start it all over with image hosters - like a lot of other boards do successfully !!!
There are enough good free hosters.

If you do this again with your own server structure AND without a backup-concept you will
have the same problem in a few years - and as Mike pointed out, the costs are too high.

The main thing is that the board lives on !!!

Presuming we'll be receiving updated instructions on posting procedure. Since all previous posts must now be deleted, does this mean that our post count will also be removed, and that we'll be starting anew? Backed up about half of my previous
posts and wondering whether these may eventually be reposted. Whatever it takes, I'm ready to resume. Will await your response. Thanks.

Here's a chance for those (puts hand up) who have lifted everything in sight to put something back into the board. We could come out on the other side bigger and better. Don't rely on the willing few to serve it up on a plate. Let's all muck in and rebuild the database

I agree to GAZO to start the fakes section from scratch (and I can join in uploading).
But we should be sure that the bulks are clean: No dups, no cFake, BSNude and so on...
(and I don't worry about my post count)
