What about the gallery? Someone told me that Sharifa kept a backup of it. It would be nice to reinstall the gallery, otherwise it's basically gone forever. The gallery is quite a tricky one because there is an addon for it- but it isn't very good- it isn't anything remotely like the Coppermine Gallery software on the old site. The Gallery addon consists of having another board on the front page for it, and the threads are categories and the pictures are there- but it does not look good to use and there are concerns about storage space alongside it so I'm afraid it won't be coming to this site. I think I wrote a post explaining why it wouldn't be added somewhere. My suggestion would be if we got the backup of the gallery and uploaded it somewhere in a private album and we could link it from here to wherever it's been uploaded.

As long as we could still have access somehow to the gallery, that's better than not having it at all.

Yeah cause hosting the gallery here would require a bigger server and an annual fee, which we don't have at the moment.

Because she basically didn't care, she said bandaids isn't her priority anymore :/ really bad behavior.Agreed, but let's not look a gift horse in the mouth. She's letting us keep the "Bandaids" name without getting pissy about it. I don't know if she's doing that out of kindness or apathy, but whatever the case, it's going to save a lot of headaches and drama.

Realistically she said Bandaids as a website isn't helping Avril anymore like it did in the past. It takes too much effort, time and money to get it back and Avril won't benefit from it like she does from social medias.

Now we just need to bring back The Voice Of Bandaids and I will be happy. Is there even enough people on this site to participate? There isn't a lot of activity on here atm cos there's not really anything to talk about until we're in another era (of Avril's future albums).

Ideally we want to focus on other things right now such as rebuilding our staff team before we relaunch big site events and we might need a few more members too

We could definitely look into the site that In the Rhymes mentioned Unfortunately it's just a case of getting our hands on that backup.

Sharifa should really just let it go... clearly she has no interest anymore. To tell us to focus on social media is stupid. If somebody else wants to make a new website, they should be allowed to... what does it matter to her? Go away Sharifa, you're nothing but a hindrance now.

She's not stopping us from doing that though:- [Sharifa] said that we can keep this forum running (i would make sure to turn it into the official forum and not a temporary one) if they wanna stay
