CHALLENGE 086: Summer of '69

We're going back 50 years for this challenge to the Summer of '69! Think disco, flower power, flower crowns, neon, the space race/lunar landings, the start of the LBGT movement, creation of the internet, Woodstock, the song…

(I got a bit carried away trying to find insp icons for this challenge, so if you want any more, let me know and I'll upload the folder).

You can use any caps between 15th July - 28th July to make your icons. These caps are included in the lj-cut in this post (hover for fandom). If you have any questions, please ask!

Those are six lovely examples - I'd love to see the rest of your inspiration folder!

Of course - here you are!

Upl.co is down for maintenance since yesteday, I don't know if it'll be back before the challenge ends or not. These are my missing screencaps. I'll edit this post as I find & upload the missing caps. After I remember which ones they were!

Fringe, Alien: Covenant


Bones, Twin Peaks



Timeless, Bones



Star Trek: Disco, Prometheus



Edit: I had the wrong Prometheus cap.
I can't remember what the Discovery screencap was! Maybe someone else saved it. Hopefully Upl.co returns soon so it won't matter. I found it, I forgot that I could look at the file name in the original post even though LJ changes it to a proxy server.

That's all my missing caps.

It looks like upl.co is still down. I re-uploaded my posts from the last week to imagehosting.biz but if upl.co still isn't back & you need new links for challenge 87 let me know the time span & I'll try to get the caps back up.

Did I upload the wrong Timeless cap? If that's from 22 July, it was supposed to be a cap from the Suffragette episode.



Hope I didn't mess up anyone's entries.

Hi, yes, thank you so much for doing this for this challenge, and if you could upload the broken ones for the new challenge that would be amazing. Or if you tell me how you are figuring out which caps they were, I'll give it a go myself!

[luminousdaze]

You're welcome! Upl.co still hasn't been restored for me so the images are still missing. :( I changed the links from August 5th up to now from my posts yesterday, but I know some from the challenge time period are still missing, I'll look into it tonight & comment back when it's done.
I'm afraid only I can do it, because I have to edit the post and view the file names to figure out which caps are missing (if I don't remember) - I liked upl.co because it saved the name of the file. I hope it comes back all my stuff is there.

Anyways, for the re-uploads I used the automatic 500px thumbnail so you'll have to click on the link but the page has embed codes you can copy.

[luminousdaze]

Okay, I restored all of my missing screencaps from the challenge period for challenge 87, at capspiration. I hope you & everyone can view images on that hosting service if not let me know.

[novindalf]

Thank you so much! Post edited with all the new links :)

[luminousdaze]

You're welcome! Guess what, Upl.co seems to be up & running again (at least for now). Yay!
