Subject: [Leica] FYI-Tripod.com URL changes, affect eBay auctions

Just a quick FYI for any of you that have been using Tripod.com to store images for your eBay auctions.  Tripod has changed their URL format and your
photos may not be showing up on your auctions because of it.  Sellers that originally uploaded images using the format "http://members.tripod.com/your
user name/name of photo/"  will find that their images no longer appear with their auctions.  Tripod has changed the format to "http://your user
name.tripod.com/name of photo/".

It has caused a lot of havoc for many eBay sellers and no one was informed of the change from what I have been told.  If your auctions have no bids on
them you can change the URL to the new format above to correct the problem.

Good Luck,
