set aside web space for projects forums pictures

Hey i was just going through the projects forum in the first gen category and all the stuff that i am interested in has an X instead of the original picture. I don;t know if it's possible or easy to do but it would be great if the people who post there could get their pictures on the same server as this forum. that way their hard work would not go to waste.

All thos picture files actually ARE located on our server. The links are being dynamically generated to prevent leaching. The modification to do this broke when we updated our server software and we havent been able to fix it yet.
The files are there, we just have to fix the bulletin board.

ahhh ok, i thought that the reason most of these links were dead was because people were using their own webspace and it was just not maintained or accounts were canceled ect.
