  • HI folks the server that hosts the site completely died including the Hdd's and backups.
    Luckily i create an offsite backup once a week! this has now been restored so we have lost a few days posts.

    we are now using a backup solution

Are you referring to 'scanned' pictures, or good pictures that you are posting.
If it is with your scanner, is it one side of the pic all the time or does it vary.
Maybe we need more info.

Can you tell us what file type the affected pictures ore stored in? You can find out by right clicking the picture file and selecting "Properties". See below; this is a jpg file.
 
Are you putting your memory card straight into your printer or downloading from your camera, this happened to me a couple of times when putting memory card into printer, I found if I wiped the connection bit on the memory card with a clean dry cloth and downloaded my pics again they were ok.
 
Hang on, I'm getting confused here. Are the photos degrading while stored on the computer or what?

Hi,
I'm assuming you put the images into your computer from your camera probably using a USB cable.
Are the photos still in the camera?
If so, do they still look good in the camera?
Sometimes, images can be corrupted when transferring by card.
If they are still in the camera, try re-transferrng by cable.
Perhaps you need to outline where the images started from, how you put them into your computer.
Usually jpg images corrupt in the lower part of the picture, its unusual to have one side altered. Were they once ok in your computer or have they always been coloured
If the pictures are not private perhaps you could reduce file size and post one on here.
Rather a lot of questions.:)
