Migration of your photos is complete
Dear captainsblog,
We have finished transferring your photos from the old Scrapbook service to our new photo hosting service. You can find your photos here: http://captainsblog.livejournal.com/pics/catalog/ .
Photos transferred: 1106.
You can review the detailed migration report here: http://www.livejournal.com/pics/migration .
Thank you for using LiveJournal Scrapbook!
I read the detailed migration report. It told me that a dozen or so pics out of the thousands I've linked to entries over eight-plus years, didn't transfer. What it DIDN'T tell me, though, was whether the links to the old photos, which are embedded in thousands of entries, will still work.
The biggest FAQy issue seems to be tags, which I don't use on my pics, but killing the connections to my content will pretty much burn the last bridge that keeps me hosting on this service, since Dreamwidth doesn't have a scrapbook equivalent- yet- and other alternatives would require major reworking of the back catalog.
Given how last month went, particularly its kickass ending, I think I'll just sit on this egg of a photo collection for a few more months and then head north after it hatches.
