Getting images back online

Update 10/04/2009: YAY! Almost 2 years after I started my "get the images back online" project, I'm almost there. I took another look at my script today and found the problem that was causing it to miss the majority of my images. I fixed the problem and am in the process of uploading just under 1000 images to the site! I still have another 300 to find and upload, but I think I'll have most of those online by the end of next week. With my pictures back online, and my motivation back, you can look forward to some new content soon!

Update (sometime in 2008): that link spider didn't work so well for my purposes. I ended up using a free tool called Xenu's Link Sleuth to generate my list of broken image links. Great little tool!

I wrote a script that steps through the list and looks for the missing images on my PC. I was able to find around 100 from 1300 missing images using this process, and those are already uploaded to my web server. Unfortunately, that means I'm still missing another 1200 images. They're somewhere (some on CD's, I guess). 1300 is way too many to process by hand, so I'm looking for some reasonable ways to automate the process. Maybe this summer...

I'm using a free dead links spider to help get my missing images back online ASAP. I'd like to have them on sometime in November.
