Rochelle camera washed out?
Posted by CShaveRR on Thursday, August 22, 2002 1:55 PM
I'm getting a black screen with the little icon with colored shapes on it where the action should be. I know it rained there last night and this morning (last photos available to me were around 0700 today), and was wondering whether the powers-that-be know about this, or if it's a problem unique to me.

I am also getting the black screen and a little white x in a box in the lower left hand corner of the screen. I recently upgraded my computer and this seems to have happened since. ???????

Live cam came in fine at 11:02 pm. Only oddity I noticed was that recent images counted back from 7:43 pm until the sixth frame which suddenly showed a photo of some clown on the roof looking at the camera and was dated 7-27-02 at 12:43 pm. Where the heck did that come from?

Thanks, all...I'm still blacked out. My computer has been acting up today, and a couple of reboots doesn't seem to have helped. I can look at the recent photos from today now, and I have two shots of the guy on the roof. Since they're out of sequence (and did NOT appear in there this morning), could we have somehow been disrupted?
