MariJ Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 April I took a "Who I Am - Right Now" class -- my first ScrapGirls venture. I've never been able to find that Gallery, is it around here someplace? It had to be April/May 2010. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarbaraC1977 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 OK, I think I've moved all my layouts that needed to be moved. Will check again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiles Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Are there any tips for finding older layouts that are languishing in these galleries? When I click on "gallery" from my member page, it doesn't go back very far. At one time I thought I could see all of them from there??? thanks! Click on "My Gallery" in the dropdown at the top right of the page - next to your profile photo. That will show all your posted layouts. When I click on the arrow, the dropdown menu appears all right, but if I move the mouse it collapses and won't allow me to select any of the options. I thought it might be a pen tablet problem, but it also happens with my mouse. Any suggestions? (grrrr....) thanks! Hi Gayle, I used to have that problem when I used Internet Explorer. I switched to Firefox and that solved the problem. I think if you are using IE, you can also try clicking on the Compatibility View icon in the address bar. I think that may work too. Maybe someone else will have some other ideas for you... HTH That fixed it! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorac Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I'm confused. People are talking about moving their layouts to other galleries. If the layout is pre 2009, where else can you put them so that they don't get deleted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the layout is pre 2009, where else can you put them so that they don't get deleted? I've been moving mine to whatever gallery is appropriate for the layout as long as it is a gallery that is not being deleted. The only ones being deleted are the ones April listed in her opening post. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorac Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 What about the Saturday Color Challenge? Is that considered 'General Message Board Challenges'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teecee Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 What about the Saturday Color Challenge? Is that considered 'General Message Board Challenges'? No. The Saturday Color Challenge has its own gallery and is separate from General Message Board Challenges. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April Showers Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 What about the Saturday Color Challenge? Is that considered 'General Message Board Challenges'? Nope, it is its own gallery already. The General Message Board Challenge Gallery is going away. I've already moved all the layouts from 2012-2013 to the new daily challenge categories (as best I could). Sometimes I had to guess. If you would like to save a layout from 2011 and earlier from that gallery, you will need to move it to another gallery. If it is Tuesday Freebie Challenge layout, move it to that category. The Friday challenge used to be Customer Submitted, and I still put those in the Friday category even though the challenge has changed. Like Theresa said, I won't be clearing out all the galleries of layouts before 2009. If the gallery isn't on the list, it will stay the same. Let me know if you have more questions.

I'll go back and move all of my 2011 General Message Board Challenges. Thanks April! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teabaglady Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Thanks for the heads up! Is there a maximum number of layouts per album? I don't want to lose any of my albums, but there are a couple from 2008. They're sorted, but I can consolidate the older ones if it helps to clean up my space, and if I know how many I can put in each album I can sort more efficiently. :-) Heather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you click on "My Gallery" it shows all your layouts no matter the gallery. If they are in the specified galleries, they will be deleted unless they are moved to another gallery that is staying.

lorac Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Thanks April. I thought that would happen. I believe that I got all my layouts moved that I wanted to save. I lost a lot of my early layouts from before 2010 when my pc crashed last year. This way, at least I'll have the layout saved here at SG in case I want to redo the layout.

April Showers Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 Were we supposed to specify we wanted our personal galleries kept? Would have thought that was obvious. Any personal (member) galleries that haven't been updated since Jan 1 2009 were on the deletion list. We aren't sure why the images in the remaining galleries aren't showing. Wendee is working on it and hopes to be able to restore the images to the gallery from the back-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
