I'm a big fan of the Photo Board. There are usually a few very good photos each day, but once in a while I see a photo that is really transcendent.
It would be nice if I could go back and view the photo, but unless I keep a notebook of what day the photo was there. the photos get lost to the rigors of time.
So, how about creating an archive that each VIP member can have and a way to transmit certain photos to that archive?
I'm sure it will take a bit of programing but I think it would be so worth it.
Every photo in the forums is submitted as a LINK to some external (non-TER) image storage site: imagecoast, imgur, etc.. TER does NOT store image files. As long as the original photo link is still good, it will still work ... but many Providers are constantly updating (adding and deleting photos on) their websites. Some use "free" image hosting sites with limited free storage (and then pay for extra storage only if they need it) so older images might disappear. Even if a photo is re-uploaded to a Provider's site or NEW site, it has to have the EXACT SAME url as was used on the original TER post.
Original link:
ProviderName.com/All_Photos/photo001.jpg
6 months later, she separates her photos into seasonal sets:
ProviderName.com/All_Photos/winter2023/photo001.jpg/
.
The ORIGINAL LINK (still stored on TER) will NOT find the photo001.jpg that has been moved to a new folder.

You COULD download your favorite photos to your computer to ogle at your convenience. Some of us want ZERO trace of TER on our computers.
.
You COULD upload the image files to your own imagecoast or imgur or bbi.co or cuties account. (1) Download photo to your computer (2) Upload photo to your image storage account and give it a helpful name [ProviderName Photo Only Dec 2023 Red Lingerie"]. Or, since it was transcendental, "ProviderName Photo Only Dec 2023 pi 3.14159" (3) then delete the photo from your computer.
.
Sticking to TER only, as long as the photo IS still at the same original link location, you might be able to find old photos and their links by using the "See my Posts" link for the Provider of interest. Scroll down to find (a) the Photo Only posts and (b) the approximate time / date you saw the memorable post. Click to get to that old post / photo on Photo Only. (If the link no longer works, you'll get some sort of File Not Found error.)

I have to admit that I've advocated for a GOOD Photo Archive for K-Girls. It's hard to keep track of the K-Girls that keep changing names and so on. For keeping Profiles accurate and up to date, it would be useful to have Photographic proof that Coco in NYC in October is now Luna in LA in December so the Reviews will post together in a single "Coco / Luna" Profile. (The League guys used to have a pretty good archive / concordance until their League was demoted to the minors.)

To Repeat, I doubt that TER will start archiving IMAGE files. **Maybe a new Board** ("Favorite Photos") could be a place for "us" to re-post / archive a link to a favorite photo with added comments. "ProviderName, from Photo Only Dec 2023. Comment: Did anybody else notice that her pose is identical to Marilyn Monroe 1958?" or "She's looking rather transcendental here. Better than her other pics which make her look irrational." [Yeah, yeah, yeah ... all transcendentals are irrational but NOT all irrationals are transcendentals.]

I think I have a way to do my own archive.
I copy and paste this to an email to myself on my own email, then give it a name and date and file it in a folder labeled TER photos.
Now the issue is how long the particular photo will be up and active, but it's something at least.
Right click on your favorite photo
A small window should appear.
Mouse over and left click on “save image as…
Another window should appear where you can choose where on you lap top/computer you can save it to…..you can choose pictures file or you can save them to a flash drive or other external drive. In the “file name area you can name the photo as you want.
hope that helps
