All of the image links in my bloke are broggen.

Well, you know what I mean.

Anyway, this is because as of this morning, they changed the DNS lookup at work, so it's no longer resolving to the server where all my stuff is kept.

They still haven't sent out the e-mail telling us they're going to do this yet, either. To me, this should qualify for the "a good thing to know ahead of time" category.

Anyway, so I'm still trying to figure out the best way to deal with this. The easiest thing to do would be to move my stuff to the new server, provided they'll allow me to do that.

Otherwise, I'll have to go back into every post, and change the links manually.

In the meantime, here's another hysterical episode of Artie the Atari:

That just kind of says it all, doesn't it?




The same thing happened to me at work a few weeks ago. They randomly changed the IP address of one of our servers, which effectively rendered us useless for half the day, since the new IP address was not accessible from the memcache servers. It was awesome. Similarly, it would've been nice to know, like, at least 10 minutes before it happened.

I ran the update query on the server for you so once you copy all the blog pics to your server they should be visible again. ;)

Thanks Albert! Some of them are working now. The rest apparently need "www" added to their URLs. (I sent you an e-mail about it.)

I guess I should have tested that first. ;)
