Hello everyone,
TL;DR: Check the links to Executive Staff badges in your signatures.
More details:
When the Executive Staff was first created, the original Executive Staff badges were hosted on my work server (this URL: http://azure.seas.harvard.edu/ns/executive_staff/ ).
At a latter point, this changed and all Executive Staff badges were moved to a public Dropbox folder, which also hosts several other TNP-related graphics. The Dropbox versions are the ones currently linked in the Executive Staff thread.
The Dropbox folder will remain online and accessible for as long as Dropbox exists, so you don't need to worry about those files. However, my work server is due to go offline in about a week, so those copies of the Executive Staff badges will become inaccessible.
Therefore, everyone still linking to the Executive Staff badges through the above Harvard server should update their signatures to instead link to the Dropbox locations (found here). Going through today's posters, I could only find Nierr using the old links, but there are probably others.
Best,
r3n.
P.S. Apologies to admins for starting a thread in this area, but it's probably the best forum location for this kind of thread. You're of course welcome to move the thread elsewhere.
P.P.S. The above server is completely unrelated to the one running our telegramming etc. scripts. That server is still running normally, and I plan to continue to maintain it indefinitely.
TL;DR: Check the links to Executive Staff badges in your signatures.
- If all badges are loaded from Dropbox (URLs starting with https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16293499/executive_staff/ ), you can ignore this thread.
- If there are badges loaded from this server: http://azure.seas.harvard.edu/ns/executive_staff/ , then please update your signatures to instead link to the Dropbox versions found in the Executive Staff thread. You don't need to remove any badges from your signatures, you only need to change the links.
