Image problems / switching to a new image host. (lemmygrad.ml)

We're in the process of switching images to a new host, as our old one is shutting down.

I got most images transferred over (we have > 150 GB of images), but they pulled the old image host a month before I was expecting it. I don't know if (or how long) it will take to restore the old one and transfer the rest of the images.

If your profile pictures or other important images are missing, re-upload them for the time being, since I don't know if our old host will accomodate us.

Sorry about this everyone.

Thats unfortunate, I realise I no longer have my original profile image anywhere, guys I'll have to set aside some time to make a new one

The wolf with the hammer and sickle over it? Sometimes federation isn't super fast so I checked your user page via lemmy.ml and it's still visible there: https://lemmy.ml/u/commiewolf@lemmygrad.ml

On my end I can't see it. I use Lemmy off my phone, I wonder if there's got something to do with it.

Other instances have local copies of profile pictures, so anyone who hasn't changed theirs since the image issues began should be able to access it through lemmy.ml. You might need to edit the image slightly to prevent the de-duplication feature from triggering

Much appreciated
