  Hi there,
  I have flagged this thread for Staff assistance.

  Can you please give us a link to the posts with the problem photos?

  For example, on this page: http://urbanedgeny.wordpress.com/2012/08/24/nyu-2031-plan-approved-an-update-on-the-sexton-plan/ the first two pictures are still linked to Posterous, but the third imported to WordPress. Although you can’t hover over the third pic to get the URL, which is weird.

  In this post: http://urbanedgeny.wordpress.com/2012/08/27/pork-slope-chef-dale-taldes-new-and-rocking-park-slope-bar-restaurant/ the first, third and fourth pics are on WordPress, but the second and fifth are on Posterous.

  This is why I don’t really want to have to fix this manually, if we can find another solution. We have 209 blog posts, and most have 4-6 photos.

  The embedded images were listed in Posterous’s temporary directory, so they weren’t considered to be a part of the blog and therefore were not imported.

  In this case, the only way to fix this is to manually upload the images.
