i'm not antp but ( almost ) everything coming from Imageshack is in a similar situation ( Imageshack basically forced its users to paid accounts so everything on free ones was deleted )

i wonder now too if they still are somewhere in the database or were directly on Imageshack... :think:

Some background history: long time ago we were using mostly Imageshack to store pictures in comments.
On 1st March 2012 Imageshack announced that you could only have 500 photos on a free account (I had more than 24000 at that time).
So I added the possibility to upload pictures directly on the IMCDb server.
That thread was made back then:
https://imcdb.opencommunity.be/forum_topic-6779-45642.html
Shortly after that, I made a script to transfer everything from Imageshack (and a few others) and replace them with links to pics.imcdb.org - All those from imageshack have addresses that start by "pics.imcdb.org/0is".

Some external image links are still dead, and there are two categories:

- images that have been lost by Imageshack before the conversion. I have a backup of some of them, as I made earlier a script to backup them just in case. Same for some of the thumbnail saying "Picture not available" in the oldest comments. I don't have all backuped, though.
Since 10 years I have on my to-do list the task of making a script that searches for dead Imageshack links to check if they exist in my backup :D
So this is the reason why I did not completely delete these dead links and why it is better to keep them unless we have new comment pictures to replace them: some of them can be brought back some day.

- images that were posted after the conversion, which is the case here, seeing the date of Twingoman's post. These are lost for sure.
In the same way, all what is not from Imageshack is lost too.
Some other services were converted, but some were not easy to make via script (e.g. Imagebam), and some lost many pictures before I could do anything, (e.g. geting.se)
