Description AppAraat 2016-11-07 18:30:29 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
1) Go to some older blog entries which have pictures in them on blogs.kde.org (mainly from before 2009)

Actual results:
Pictures are broken (they lead to broken links)

Expected results:
Pictures loading normally.

Examples:

This should now be resolved. Note that some images are unavailable still - these have been lost to the sands of time i'm afraid.

Thanks!

Regarding the sands of time, https://archive.org/web/ sometimes has some images saved. Someone could get the images from archive.org to blog.kde.org if that's a valuable idea. I can volunteer in that effort if that's ok.
