Talk:Paragon Times/20050713

Page 8A

I've been using the Internet Wayback Machine to grab these articles; not all of the images are available (as seen by the 6 missing images in this article). The page 8A of this article poses an issue: In addition to consisting mainly of 5 (missing) images, its format is different from the other Paragon Times articles (which is why I've broken Template:Paragon Times Article into header, body, and footer.

Page 8A is supposed to have the 5 images alternating between left and right aligned down the page, with the title floating right of the first image, the photo attribution floating to the right and just under the 4th image (just like the framed attributions earlier in the article). The kicker is that the images are also overlapping one another. See the layout of the page in the wayback machine with broken images: Page 8A Layout --Fleeting Whisper 02:58, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

I've been doing some heavy searching of the internet to see if I can find any of those missing images, but so far I've only located one. I get a lot of hits on the Stratics wiki for the earlier articles, but all of the files there have been removed from their servers. I hold out a very small glimmer of hope that maybe - just maybe - if we can compile a list of all the images that are missing (which should be fairly simple if I just search for HTM files in the archived directories I saved off from the Wayback) that we might at least recover a couple of images here and there by asking on the forums if anyone has any of those pictures saved on their hard drives or something. It would be great if they had a set of archived files somewhere in the NC offices that they could help us recover images from, but I'm not holding my breath on that one, either.

Page 8A definitely presents a challenge. I'll have to play around with it some this week and see if I can come up with something that's just crazy enough to work. --Eabrace 03:36, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
