[DeTomaso] Your old Pantera photos

Hey gang,
I've been doing a bit of research on how to try and "recover" all your 
old photos from the POCA server.  When we took the old server down, we 
DID backup everything, so your photos have been lingering out there on 
the server; just in an inaccessible place without you being able to see 
them or login or anything.

Please understand we might not be able to set it up the way it once was.

I'm trying to see if there is a way I can provide an alternative, though 
it's not easy.  Read that as a major PITA, I already have 5 hours into 
this and all I can do is let you -look- at your old photos; no logging 
in, no uploading.  I don't have this set up as part of the POCA site 
either because I consider this "transitional" right now.  It still needs 
a crap load of work and in the end I still might not be able to make it 
work the way it should.  BE AWARE, as I work on this, it might go away, 
so don't rely on this for "links."

BUT... if you've been longing to find those photos at least temporarily, 
here they are:
http://www.poca.com/piwigogal/

All but 1,915 photos are there.  The 1,915 that aren't there, aren't 
there because they had a "space" in the filename and the software won't 
recognize those and throws an error.  So if you go to your folder and 
find some photos missing... that's why.  We still -have- them, it's just 
a matter of trying to figure out how to import them, if possible and it 
might not be possible.

Anyway......  whatever
