How long do pics stay in threads?
I like to check the fishing reports during the month of the previous year that I am planning a trip. Such as this year in October. So, I look at the report from Oct. 2019 and any pic posted is gone. Do I have a setting wrong or is there some universal time limit? Or, do we know?

It depends on the hosting site.
The picture remains visible until the link to it becomes invalid.
Photobucket is the most common example...
Tiny pic has a date expiration on uploads
Some of the 'older' pics do have a resolution glitch in our display software from back when "Bubba" (the original admin) migrated the forum to another host.
The picture reconfiguration caused older pics to not display...

I’ve always just copied and pasted. Didn’t use a hosting site. OK, thanks for the info.

I copy and paste from Facebook ;-)

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
