If anyone tried to view my mods in the past few days and wondered where the pictures went, I had a solid state drive suddenly fail, putting my whole system offline. Since I self-host my pictures, this meant that the links were broken. Fortunately, I have most of my files on a separate drive, including all my picture files. They are also backed up using SpiderOak One, which is an online encrypted storage so my private information remains private as SpiderOak is a zero-knowledge (meaning they don't hold the keys, I do so they can't decrypt my files) storage system. I have now purchased and installed a new solid-state drive and have reinstalled Fedora 29 Linux. I have more reconfiguring and reloading of utilities to do, but my basic web server is working and the pictures are again showing up in my mods. I'll have to look to see if I have posted pictures elsewhere that are not showing up so I can put copies of them in the proper place so the image links will work again.
