Imgsafe.org has lost images - You might be able to recover them from your browser cache

It looks like imgsafe.org lost a bunch of images during their outage.

About half of the images I had hosted there for my posts on steemit are no longer appearing. If you have images hosted there that are missing and haven't restarted your browser in a long time, you might be able to rescue them from your browser cache. Here are the steps you can use to try to recover the images from your brwoser cache.

First things first, check your posts in a different browser than you normally use so it does not overwrite your image with this file-not-found image they use.

Before you try to recover images from your regular browser cache, enable your firewall or disable your network.
This will block internet traffic and force your browser to load its cached images.

In Firefox based browsers you can try to recover them with these steps:

1. Open a new page and type: about:cache
2. Look for the Disk Cache Device entry and click: List Cache Entries
3. Hit F3 and type imgsafe.org. You can skip through all the cached images from that domain.
4. When you find one you want to save, open it in a new tab
5. Right click on the image and save it to another location.

In Internet Explorer you can try to recover them with these steps:

1. Click Tools\Internet Options.
2. Select Browsing History\Settings.
3. In the Temporary Internet Files page, select View Files.
4. Search the directory for your images.

In Chrome you can try to recover them with these steps:

1. Open a new tab and go to:chrome://cache/
2. Find the image file and click on it.
3. Remove the chrome://view-http-cache/ from the url, leaving the https://filename
4. Hit enter, it will load it from cache.
5. Right click on the image and save it to another location.
