I don't have "Albums", just a Library.
I ended up "Saving as" every pic one at a time. That sucked.
Wow, that's too bad. I wonder if it had something to do with the amount of users all trying to download their photos at the same time? I have heard that other users have had the same trouble like you did.
Now that I got all of mine downloaded, I wish we could edit our old posts here to replace the photos that were lost. It really hurts the "Knife of the Week" threads, as a lot of the photos that had been posted are gone.
