SPRING 1905 ORDERS DUE FRIDAY AT 10PM EASTERN

[chesapeake]

Can anyone else get this map to come up today?

[path12]

Weird, the other ones seem to be OK. I can see the link when I put my cursor over it but nothing comes up.

[path12]

BTW, since this is the second time there's been a problem with Imageshack and I'm a bitmap hosting novice, anyone got ideas about other ways I can do this?

[Radii]

I can give you an FTP account at the site I use to host our FBCB league if you want to upload the diplomacy images there.

I don't know anything about free/public image hosting, I've always used my own space.

Nah, that turn got delayed b/c of a retreat order that never came, so the deadline got pushed back to yesterday, then some slacker(aka me) was late getting in his orders so the turn didn't happen til today
