    of my car from before the wreck... Any chance somebody on here has any? Drove the thing daily when it was up, and live in a pretty populated area that's the only reason I'm thinking somebody MIGHT have one from like a parking lot or car show... Here's an AFTER the wreck picture.... Any help is greatly appreciated...-

    There's a thread on it, I just etch-primed half the roof today after stripping it to metal, but I'm sick, and couldn't finish. I found 1 good pic from before...

    Losing your pics stinks. Hope someone on here can help, as surely photos have been taken at car shows.

    Just a thought to others regarding backing up photos. I have mine on my regular hard drive and I also back them ALL up every month on an external hard drive. In addition, I store them all on my fotki site as well. Cheap insurance.

    Good luck finding some more shots. Great car by the way. Keep your chin up and get her fixed as you can.

    Did you delete the pics from your computer or your camera? Not trying to insult your intelligence, but..........if you deleted 'em from your computer's picture file, is there a possibility that they can be resurrected from the "trash bin" on your desktop? I hope so. GOOD LUCK!!

    external hard drive... good idea. I recently downloaded all my pics to CD. I had a shitload of pics on my computer and it has been acting up lately.
     
  10. All my Merc/Lincoln pics I have collected over the years are kept on a pen drive.
    I have 9603 at last count.
    That is about 1.05 GB.
    I update it about once a week.
    I run them on a digital picture frame that sits by my computer.
    24 hrs a day of Merc/Lincoln pics and they never bore me.
    Also have them on an external hard drive as well.

    I did the same thing and got them all back. Depending on WHEN and WHERE they were before you deleted them, they may be recoverable. Follow this link to Zero Assumption Recovery software for picture recovery. They aren't really "gone" just the first character of the picture name has been changed. Assuming that area hasn't been written over, you can recover your pictures. Download and follow the directions.
