After lunch today I returned to my picture recovery task and applied this to
This is the process involved: I click on the post at me chosen date – 13th August 2022. The gallery appears as if looking through frosted glass. It carries the message that “this block contains unexpected or invalid content.” followed by the direction “Attempt block recovery”.
Clicking on the attempt box reveals the un-misted gallery of images which do not contain titles. Each gallery has the separate message, whether there are 2 or 50 images or, as in this one 55.
In one sense one large gallery is simpler; in another – perhaps featuring a dozen galleries – the un-frosting has to be carried out each time.
These images will have been recovered, probably by Peacocks Computers from the Photos section of my iMac, in which each picture has its own title. In the transferred selection there are no titles, therefore in this Barbecue post I have had to retype each one individually in order to make the statement “Each participant is named in the gallery” accurate.
Finally, the header picture was chosen directly from the Mac Photos and itself added separately.
This afternoon I watched the Six Nations rugby match between England and Italy, then returned to the recovery process, featuring
This post from 12th August contains 31 photographs spread among 10 blocks.
Ellie enjoyed the taste of her parents’ chicken passanda, chicken dopiaza, and peshwari naan from Red Chilli takeaway fare this evening, but we didn’t try her on my Tandoori King Prawn Naga, with which I drank more of the Frappata-Seyrah.
That’s a lot of recovering and a lot of time.
Thank you very much for recognising that, Chrissy
Ditto!
Thank you very much both of you
So much work–a full-time job!
Ellie looks like she really enjoyed the food.
Thanks very much, Merril
I’ve finally worked out what the problem is with your picture recovery. You are making the elementary mistake of expecting the computer to do what you want it to do, rather than submitting to its choice of what is going to happen.
Don’t give up, Derrick. It sounds to me as if the tide may be slowly turning in your favour.
I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve made that same mistake!
That is true, John. But, believe me, I have learned. Thanks very much
The Barbeque day photos are fabulous Derrick, a bit like our weather this week …
Cheers, Ivor
What a laborious process that photo recovery is! I love the photos of Ellie enjoying her parents’ food.
Thank you so much, Liz
You’re welcome, Derrick.
I can’t believe Ellie is now trying solids! Time flies!
This image recovery is becoming more and more complicated!
Thanks very much, Sue.
That’s a heck of a lot of work. Miss Ellie looks like she’s ready to expand her dining options. How old is she now?
Still not six months. Thanks very much, Pat
I would have guessed older. She is going places as she ages.
Oh Derrick, this sounds tedious and frustrating. You are so patient to work through this recovery. I hope it goes quickly.
Thank you so much, Alys
Photo recovery is a log and difficult process, but you are getting closer, Derrick, And little Ellie is growing up so fast!
Thank you so much, Lavinia
AW!!! So good to see beautiful Miss Ellie! Glad she is enjoying sharing her parent’s food! 😉 🙂
Oh, my! on all of the photo recovery! Keep up the good work, Derrick!
(((HUGS))) 🙂
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks very much, Carolyn X
You’re welcome very much! 🙂
My goodness, what a lot of work. And patience! I’m glad Ellie is there to relieve the frustration and put a smile back on your face. She’s developing an adventurous palate!
Thank you so much, Sandra
Best wishes for completion of your recoveries! What a tedious chore, but one that rewards us readers with lots of new material each post!
Thank you so much, Doug
I still use the Classic editor. I hope when they finally force me to switch to Block, none of this happens!!!!
So did I hope so, but my problem was that I ran out of image space and they wouldn’t let me increase it, so I had to find an alternative. Thanks very much, GP
I try to keep my images at a decent size, it seems to help.
It does. I had no idea about resizing
Ah, I had never quite figured out what went wrong to make you do all this work. You must be one of the top bloggers of all time. LOL
Thank you so much, Jodie
Kudos to you for the patience that you have in recovering the photos! Ellie seems really pleased of her meal ?
Thanks very much, Ribana. She gets cross when the samples are removed.
That’s hilarious! I have a niece who is 11 months old and I remember the first time I saw her eating (with gusto!!) and her reaction to the end of the meal.
That seems tedious to me.
It sure is. Thanks very much, Andy
You’re welcome.
Gosh, what a process! Love seeing Ellie’s bright face.
Thank you so much, Laurie
Your patience deserves a special award, Derrick.
What a delicious child!
Thank you so much for both comments, Dolly
My pleasure, Derrick.
Love the Ellie (and Jackie) pics. She’s a beautiful child.
Thank you so much, Jodie. She’s very smiley
<3
There is much magic here. May the recovery fill all our hearts ?
Thank you so much, Val X
Ellie is such a bright-eyed little cherub! What joy she brings to. your family!!
Thank you so much, Jan
No bland baby food for that cutie! Great introduction to real flavors.
Thank you very much, Elizabeth
Oh, gosh, Derrick. That is a labour of love. I’m sorry you are having to go through this. Have you any idea what percentage is done?
Most are now sone, I hope. Thank you very much, Susan
