Photo Not Found Error

When I went to my site just now I have several Photo Not Found errors written across my header.
I don't have any photos in my header just words.

I have not made any changes to my site in about a month so not sure where this is coming from.

Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

    Same here but it is my footer. I believe it was just black space.

    Wilif,

    I believe that your problem is this css declaration...

    background: url(http://www.texassportsimage.com/photos/XXXXXXXX-L.gif);

    You have this in your CSS:


    #my_header img {
    width:xxx;
    height:yyy;
    border:0;
    }

    .homepage #my_header {
    display: block;
    margin-left:auto;
    margin-right:auto;
    background: url(http://www.texassportsimage.com/photos/XXXXXXXX-L.gif);
    height: XXpx;
    width: 960px;
    text-align: center;
    }

    You'll want to remove that since you really aren't calling any image there.

    Bham you have the same sort of issue:

    #my_footer img {
    width:xxx;
    height:yyy;
    border:0;
    }

    .homepage #my_footer {
    display: block;
    margin-left:auto;
    margin-right:auto;
    background: url(http://mcleod.smugmug.com/photos/XXXXXXXX-L.gif);
    height: XXpx;
    width: XXXpx;
    }

    remove all that code and you'll be fine :)

    Curious why this is just showing up now. I haven't changed anything to my code in months if not a year. So something has been changed by smugmug. You may find a lot more people with this.

    Well now the text I had for my custom footer info has disappeared.

    The text is still there as far as I can tell. Did you want it to display on all pages or just the hompage?


    If all pages, remove the following from your css section:
    #my_footer {display: none; }

    Homepage only, add this below the above line:

    .homepage #my_footer {display: block;}

    To 'style' it up, use this:
    .homepage #my_footer {
    width: 750px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    display: block;}


    Give one of the options a try, and if I'm way off base, yell back :)

    Well the only time I see the customized footer text that I wanted is when I am on the actual customization page, but its not showing on my homepage logged in or logged out, or on any other page logged in or out. Before the errors showed up today it showed up just on my homepage.

    The text you gave me worked. Thanks

    Now back to the question why all of a sudden did the code I had on the website for at least 8 months or it could have been 2 years stop working.

    Also FYI richW, whatever is supposed to load in the center of your homepage isn't working.

    I'm not sure what changed on your site to cause this ne_nau.gif

    Thanks about my site, thats what I get for starting a project just before I need to login to the help desk to help all the Smuggers. My site can wait :D

    I haven't changed anything on my site in a long long time except to upload photos and create new galleries. My point is smugmug changed something. I didn't start this thread another user who had similar code that worked, suddenly didn't work. So you may get some other users with similar issues when they notice them.

    What we changed was that if you have a bogus url in your code (like that XXXXXXX-L.jpg) it'll show a photo not found error.
