That front page link has the CSD logo. So that must be out of data.
Who’s funding the servers? Who now owns the site?
It is frustrating when something like this is outside your control
unexpectedly. Time for a think.
If the people at AK are no longer reliable or as reliable as we would like it might be a good time to look at an autonomous option.
Someone who knows how may need to contact them. FWIW, I just uploaded an update to a thread over on AK complete with photos and formatting. At least theirs is working at this time.

I've emailed Luther about these problems ( this morning, Nov11th ) . EarlK
( some basic text editing is still possible if one knows a little bit of the vBulletin instruction set )
Go to bbcode tags to see what's editable using these tags.
Here's a clickable pic of Heather's L212 set ( which btw, are for sale at an excellent price );
The pic above includes a link to her ad ( click the pic ).

Still not uploading jpg??Rob or adding Emoji??
"I could be arguing in my spare time"
Nope, I am still unable to upload. I even cleared out my cache.
I tried EarlK's suggestion - but had to downsize my images to get uploads working ...
I'll presume the server had ImageMajick module in the past that would auto-downsize large images.
I had to downsize my 3meg images to something like 750-860 to upload them.
Those dog gone Heathkit Valencias finally went down the road!
Replaced them with a different pair of Heathkits ... AS-1348 from 78-80 ...

Thanks Earl!
I am still miffed at whoever is in charge here... this is messed up!
I had to Google Heather's new speakers. I found these... interesting. Are they functioning? Will you turn them into your super L200s?
Widget
Yes, they are functional. They were apparently made from 1977 through 1980 - I have a screencap from the 1980 Christmas catalog with them, but I gather not many were sold.
They originally had rear-facing slot fed Philips 15" woofers, but somewhere down the line the surrounds failed and sadly, someone replaced them with Parts Express Dayton woofers.
I suspect the original Philips drivers are long since out of production and unobtainium. Of course, I have that new pair of 2216Nd drivers, so I have temporarily loaded them into the
rear mounts. They are better than the Dayton woofers, but I don't think they've quite got the feel of the original light-cone Philips woofers.
And, I did consider that one 2216Nd woofer costs more than I paid for the pair of Heaths!
I did chase down the Heathkit assembly manual - and it seems there are only 4 caps in the crossover, so with 40+ year old speakers, I think thats the next step, tho the mids and tweeters are playing fairly well considering. I touched up the chips and scratches, and have some new grill cloth ordered from Huntley Audio.
I don't know if they'll be the super L200 system - I do like the look of them. They're 24 x 15 x 38 - and taper to the base and the top - which is only 10 inch deep.
That's not enough room to hang the JohnW Smith horn, adapter and 2445j driver up there, but I am looking into other options.
