When I saw your post I thought "Ack, bet it's at home on the desktop and not here with me on the laptop!"

I'm very pleased to report that I was wrong!

Oh thankyou so much , you are a life saver.I don't understand how my images just seem to disappear when they feel like it. Hope you are enjoying your extended stay in London.

panic stations , but thank goodness help arrived in the form of londonronnie. I don't know why this happens but sometimes one or two images feel the need to vanish from my gallery for no reason that i can explain .

I can't view the image londonronnie posted, so I'm still not sure which one it is, but I'm so glad you've found someone who has it :0)

(I did see one of him in a wheelchair once (somewhere...), it was enough to inspire an entire fic I'm still working on. I've plotted myself into a bit of a corner with it, so it's on hold at the mo, but I'm sure you'll recognise the inspiration if and when you see it!)

i think you would immediately recognise the image if you saw it.

I look forward to reading your story once you are not plotted into a corner and it eventually sees the light . You can't keep me in suspense now *g*

Poor Lew, he looks so dejected in this pic. I'm glad londonronnie came to the rescue, as I couldn't locate this pic either in my files.
When you said you'd lost this pic do you mean from your tablet?
I read in various tech blogs that internal and external memories on tablets and smartphones are "flash memory", a different technology from memory used in most PCs and laptops which use hard disk drives (HDD). Flash memory is faster to access than HDD but is apparently less 'reliable' in that you risk losing some of the data without warning, whereas traditional HDD have moving parts and are slower to access but are supposed to be more reliable and last longer. So if you save all your Lew images only onto a tablet you might risk losing some of the data, and I'd advise you to back up all the images onto a second location such as a desktop or laptop computer (or an external HDD), and not just rely on your tablet only.

Thank you for the information and most of my images have been backed up but this image seems to have slipped the net thought now that I have it back then it has been backed up as well . He looks so down here , bless him .

You're very welcome. Glad this pic is safely stored now.
This pic is from when he'd broken his ankle (or leg?) in a parachuting accident during the shooting of Backtrack that had to be suspended for several months?

Are you able to see the pic by copying its URL (http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/londonronnie/5056066/305589/305589_original.jpg) onto a browser window?

yes it is and i have had this image stored for so long now but to lose it or for it to vanish without warning left me in a state of panic but i'm a happy bunny now that it is back were it belongs .

It's turned into a bit of an epic - at least by my standards - but I'm definitely hoping I'll be able to post it at some point :0)

I'm not totally sure how LJ works, but I think what Fiorenza was trying to say was that londonronnie linked thr image from her own journal and the pic there might be only viewable to people on her friends' list. So unless londonronnie friends Fiorenza, F. won't be able to view the pic.
If you wish to let F. view the pic, you could save and upload the pic from londonronnie's to your journal and send F. the link.

I'm sorry but I can't put a link up . I'm afraid it's just not cooperating.

I've uploaded the pic to my journal. Are you able to view it? http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/freetraveller15/14170886/8393/8393_300.jpg

Thank you and if anyone wants to view it they can look in your journal now.

Date: 2016-06-17 04:32 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] freetraveller15.livejournal.com
Yes, they can. I've also set the security level of this pic as "public", so anyone can view it, not just people on my friends' list

Oh yes, I can - thank you! I've not seen that one before - the one I saw was in a wheelchair, he wasn't on his own and he looked a lot happier!

But that one is a perfect fit for the vibe of my story...he's put out of action in that too. I really must get myself out of the hole I wrote myself into - there are a few other complications with it as well - I'm hopeful it will be posted at some point, but unfortunately I can't guarantee it.

Well good luck with finishing your fic and glad you have managed to view the image.
