Old Message Board Images
Posted: Wed Jun 10, 2026 8:56 pm
I have come across some old (okay, very old) folders of photos from the message board, some going back to mid 2008, and up to Christmas Eve 2016. When I tell you that I've now got the total down to a little more than fifty three thousand photos you'll understand its taken me a wee while to weed out malformed filenames and corrupted file sizes etc and get them into a single file.
If there's any interest in it, I'll try and get that file online in the next few weeks but it'll need to fit around other stuff for National which is just around the corner. Otherwise I'll just compress the file and leave it in the club archives for someone else to find in another fifteen years
Several thousand are tiny files that were probably 'sig' files back in the day, while others are relatively high quality pics up to a couple of MB each. Unfortunately the file names are not chronological and there's no way to associate them with individual topics, so it would strictly be a case of 'seek and ye will find'.
