I love grip-clips !
Have you got anyone selling them in the UK yet ?
I'm burning through my first 100.

I know you've been around for a while, but I realized I never said hello. Thanks for sharing your awesome projects, and welcome to Instructables! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks ewilhelm for the encuragemant. Great site; except: For some reason many pages and images are now missing from some of my projects. I am reluctant to add more projects for fear that they too will become corrupted. I get viewers like: the images seem to be broken? from LuisWalker20 hours ago. Thanks for any help. Matin

We've got a jpg vs. jpeg image issue that still needs to be solved. We still have all the original images (we just fixed the intro image by hand) and will get a script to go through a fix everything. Sorry for the frustration!

Thanks! Ewilhelm Seems this issue is in 4 or so of my projects. Odd that some of the images got knocked out while others seem fine. I thought pages were missing too but it seems it is just the images. Thanks for the fix. I figured it would fix itself but its been months so I though I would ask again about it. I am a believer in your site. Matin

Sorry it's taken so long for us to act. We found this bug, thought it only affected a small number of images, and got distracted by bigger problems. We only just realized it nailed most of your awesome projects.

Is there a way I can go in there and change the jpeg s to jpg ?

If you upload new images without the jpeg extension, that would do it. Rachel is on vacation, but she was planning on running script to make the change across all the broken images.

Hi Eric Checking in to see progress on image problem. If I uploaded the same image with the same name less the "e" would that work?

ewilhelm says: Jan 17, 2008. 4:58 PM

Yes, that should fix it. Rachel is back next week, and will be working on this then.

Hi Eric Thanks for: Your Instructable "One Hour Trash Can Fish Pond" was just featured by one of our editors! -Eric I have put up this and a Wallet knife. But true be, I am writing to bother you/Rachel about the jpeg -> jpg image problems with my older instrtables. Thanks for your work and her help ... Love your site

Don't worry. We haven't forgotten. We're under a little bit a flood right now...
