albertdarmali Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I made a few revision of my pictures on my portfolios (putting frames and such), but when it's all done, the pictures that are shown on the thumbnail on "photo" folder are still the old ones. I already tried to delete temporary internet files, but the old ones are still on the thumbnails (although when I click them, it will show the new ones instead). It's not a big deal but it's just a bit annoying for me. Anyone knows how to solve this problem ? Thanks. Albert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raisanen Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 The thumbnails are updated a little later; there is a strange delay. So just wait and the thumbnails are synchronized with your actual photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertdarmali Posted January 30, 2005 Author Share Posted January 30, 2005 I see. How how long before it actually updates the thing ? I did that around yesterday and it's still showing old portfolio pictures thumbnails.. I thought I have to fix my internet explorer... so what happen is, I have to wait for the main server (photo.net) to make the changes ? (nothing to do with my browser?) Albert.

monoxide Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Did you try right click > refresh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nejattalas Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 you can also try Ctrl+F5 on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raisanen Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 The delay is in the PN system; refresh does not help. You can try it by changing one your picture. Its thumbnail is not updated in realtime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertdarmali Posted January 30, 2005 Author Share Posted January 30, 2005 Hey, control + F5 worked ! Thanks a lot. So I think basically we have to wait for awhile for the system at P.N. to update itself, then when it's ready just press ctrl+F5 on your photo page... Now it's showing updated thumbnails already. Hope others are also seeing the updated version as well... Thanks ! Albert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmj Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 I see borders on your pictures just fine. The thumbnails are served by a different server (thumbs.photo.net), which runs Squid, a caching web proxy. Squid keeps copies of requested files for faster serving, reducing the load on the system. This helps keep photo.net running smoothly. As a result, images are not always refreshed immediately, which you have just experienced. Since there are probably much more "inserts" and "selects" than "updates" of pictures, this normally isn't a problem. Something similar happens in the gallery: the various views are calculated periodically and the exact same views are then served to all that request them until it is time to re-calculate a view.

zafar Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Sometimes the photo update results in the same delay too. Takes too long or does not happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
