The old reader's rigs gallery is only up for archival purposes - that way old threads that rely on pictures in there won't lose the pictures, etc. Editing of those albums are turned off. Just put all your stuff in the new software and over time people will stop looking at the old stuff. At some point we'll take the links off pointing to the old software and only leave it up for the old photo links in threads, etc - but we'll wait until the new software has far more photos in it than it has now.

Ohh no! I missed this.

What do I need to do here? Is there a way to move what I had to the new gallery or is it all lost?

It'll be a long time before we remove that link. The photo's will all still be there for any that are in posts, etc. The links we'll remove will be the one under your username and the link to the whole gallery up in the menu bar. There isn't any way to easily move the old pictures to the new software other than for you to download them and then upload them to the new software.

If I understand correctly then, at some point I will loose access to pics from my old gallery so to preserve them I need to download & upload to the new?

Eventually yes. We'll put notice up when we do that. I expect it probably won't be for about a year or so. Most people will be looking in the new software for pics versus the old so you may want to do that anyways.
