I am appalled at the manner in which this has been dealt with with people losing images and comments. I wondered what in the world was going on as I clicked on links from my ebots only to find a wide range of images having been deleted. I agree with others in that an announcement would have been far more considerate to the artists as well as the viewers. The way this has been handled is something I'd expect from a dictatorship. Perhaps a little common sense could be exercised?
