  I have been publishing my blog, Here in Van Nuys, since March 2005.

  One of my readers informed me that many of my older posts are missing photos. I looked, for example, at April 2007, and saw that most of the images are gone.

  I wonder how I can retrieve what is gone? I don’t see anything in my media library older than 2008, so I guess there is no solution?

  Please help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The missing pictures from: https://hereinvannuys.wordpress.com/2007/04/22/vose-street-in-van-nuys/

  are gone from where you hotlinked them into your site : http://bp3.blogger.com/_HoSp53raNGY/Riq8hjqhQlI/AAAAAAAACFk/wqvFdGHzHkE/s1600-h/DSC_4479.JPG

  They are gone from the site you got them from – was that your site? If not maybe the blogger just got tired of you borrowing their work

  they are not in your library because they were never put in the library

  My blog was originally hosted by Blogger. I transferred to WP.

  And I never use other people’s photos without asking or credit.

  Thanks.

  Then something did not work correctly with the transfer which I would guess was some time back – you might be able to fine the pictures in a search engine cache or maybe the WayBack Machine / Internet archive if you can’t find the pictures on your hard drive – but I know that going back several years in my personal archive can be tough and take a lot of time
