A couple of things

Hi Stick,

Originally I felt the paths had changed, but I may be wrong. It may well be the images are no longer accessible on the forum where they once were. An example where diagrams are munged is here:

http://www.bgonline.org/forums/webbbs_config.pl/noframes/read/85150

You will notice the diagram doesn't appear properly. The reason is that the images reference : http://www.bgonline.org/forums/webbbs_config.pl/noframes/Images/p_up_b_2.gif . Apparently it use to work in the past, but its almost like the images directories are no longer accessible via the webbbs_config.pl/noframes/Images tree. Not only that when trying to access images here the images don't appear AND it slows down considerably. The images do appear to be at this point in the webserver hierarchy http://www.bgonline.org/Images/p_up_b_2.gif and are accessible and viewable.

The side effect of the webbbs_config.pl/noframes/Images tree being inaccessible is that all old posts that referenced diagrams with images there no longer function. In particular all of Nack Ballard's GnUBG generated GammonLine diagrams no longer function. Messages that reference external images (Like XG) are just fine.

One other oddity is that the forum seems to be much slower these days. Maybe it is just me, and its not limited to viewing posts with bad images. This includes refreshing the main index. Could be more people using the site, but it has been far more noticeable the past week. Maybe I am the only one who thinks so.
