Title: Roving Reporter Reactivated!
Post by: MickT on April 25, 2011, 16:35
For the information of anyone who noticed that my Fotopic site (along with everyone else's Fotopic sites) suddently disappeared in early March, I am pleased to be able to report that this small challenge has now been overcome and I am just over half way through rebuilding my galleries in Picasaweb, with access to individual albums being available through a new Blogspot that I have built.

So far I have reactivated, renovated and re-loaded the reports that were on the Fotopic site from 2008 and 2009. Providing these all prove to be working OK and it is considered worth continuing the task, I aim to get the 2010 and 2011 up to the cessation of Fotopic (NGSW Shepton Mallet, February 2011) rebuilt and will then be able to continue with a report from the AGM and then continue the movement as before - except I think that the new site is an improvement on the Fotopic one - but I would appreciate feedback if you either agree or think otherwise!

If interested, please have a look at: http://micksrovingreporter.blogspot.com/ and let me know what you think.

Excellent! I was sad to hear the news when the old site was lost. Well done in bouncing back with an even better one. I'd still be picking brick dust out of my forehead.  :D

Great news Mick, your pics are a major source of inspiration if, like me, you don't get to many exhibitions!

Well I got there in one piece and it only took just over a month!

All of my old Fotopic photo reports going back to January 2008 have now been rebuilt and re-loaded into Picasaweb Albums with access via my Blogspot. Additionally yesterday I caught up with the first of the completely new roving reports that have been done since the demise of Fotopic - a set covering my brief visit to the AGM at Rainford 9 April. A month after the event, but I haven't seen the internet exactly overwhelmed with anybody else's photos from the day - in fact I haven't seen ANY other photos from the day!

Now hopefully got the roving reporter machine repaired, improved, re-oiled and will be able to continue as before! Enjoy!

http://micksrovingreporter.blogspot.com/ will get you there
