OK, I'm back....
Hello everyone,
Just your Administrator here to let you know that I'm back.
I've been staying away from our site until I was absolutely sure that my computers were "clean" again.
My wife clicked on something that popped up on a certain "Social Media" website, and the virus wiped every computer we own, and it knocked out my firewalls too.
So it was a "wipe the drives and start from scratch deal", what a mess.
Our June HHR of The Month Contest is on hold for another day or three as I address some of the issues that still seem to be affecting the "Gallery" function.
And also see what, if anything, can be done to recover the images that have been reported to be "lost".
Also, as some of you might know, the Photobucket image hosting site underwent a change that has affected quite a few people.
And that is impacting some of you too, in a negative way.
To those of you awaiting replies to PM's, I'm going through my Inbox one note at a time, so you haven't been forgotten.
Thanks for your understanding, and for your continued support of ChevyHHR.net

I just took a quick look at the gallery; it seems that the tut works on MY gallery, but Other members galleries work differently from mine. I have an idea for a new universal tut, sometime soon.

Have any of y'all just had one of Those weeks?
Heck, just when I get the computers fixed up, and the "Good Ship Administrator" is under sail, a dingbat tenant flooded two Condos that we own and rent out.
Condo A sits one floor directly above Condo B, the now ex-tenant, who for discussion purposes we'll call "Mr. Poopyhead", had a few friends over for a Par-Tay.
And this demented micro-cephalic individual took a dare from his buddies to hold a cigarette lighter to one of the sprinkler heads.
Whelp, it's always fun when you get back to back phone calls from the Local P.D. and the Fire Department at 4am!!
Well that was on Sunday the 9th, and since then I've become very well acquainted with my insurance company and ServproŽ, the total damage is pegged at $102,000 +/-
The June HHR of The Month Contest will start on Monday, unless a frickin' shark with a laser beam on its head attacks me.
P.S. JazzDad, when she said "Oh Bleep!!" after clicking the Click-Bait, she sorta confessed to the crime...the proverbial "Smoking Keyboard" thing, didn't need Sam Spade or Phillip Marlow on the case.
