richey_edwards Gallery = Deleted?! Help!

Hello all- Perhaps this is only temporary and this post will look foolish later - but I just happened to notice today that this gallery, the biggest, best, most wonderful collection of Manics images ever had been apparently, deleted:
http://pics.livejournal.com/richey_edwards/gallery/

I'd been meaning to save *everything* in there for awhile, but instead just saved favorites and assumed it would just be there. Now the main profile says the journal has been deleted and the user has 30 days to undelete it. *infinite sorrow* Does anyone know what's behind this deletion? And, quite importantly, did anyone save most/all of what was in there? It might come back yet, but if not, it'd be an extremely important resource to rebuild at some point (and I'd gladly help, if it comes down to that)!

And between this and Forever Delayed being down nearly all day, I feel quite lost, Manics-wise! :P

Cheers for any help + info on this,
~Marilyn
UPDATE I: Shoestring (from Tumblr) uploaded a .rar with the pics they'd saved, go on and grab it!: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Y4KU5IVY
UPDATE II: I've now uploaded a .zip of the folder of all the pics I'd saved from there - several hundred (including a few of the big article scans)! Some pics that were in other galleries might have found there way in there as well. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ANE1V9KB
I'd also like to add that many of the pics from the richey_edwards gallery had also been posted on Tumblrs such as Manics, Richey, Nicky Wire, Glamour Twins, and 1404.
UPDATE III: Uploads from newgeneration!
1991-1992/Other: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=71VCLEWC
1993: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RKPRGSEP
1994, Pt. 1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6G0IP1OV
1994, Pt. 2:  http://www.megaupload.com/?d=D6CXZQAZ
UPDATE IV: Saves from xxstaybeautiful! http://www.mediafire.com/?3tzkmmkgymy

PS: By the way, if you'd saved any from there with their original titles, they'd likely start with "000"! Pics such as these - to think of what could be lost... ;_; I've checked Internet Archive too, and there's not any images in there, but you can still see how the galleries were laid out anyway: http://web.archive.org/web/20080209141325/pics.livejournal.com/richey_edwards/gallery/00040hws

Apparently the whole profile was deleted http://richey-edwards.livejournal.com/profile

Is this the end of an era? ;___;

oh no D:
I never saved anything (lack of space, damn you) but fuuuck, this gallery was awesome D:

It seems as though [info]richey, who ran the gallery, has deleted all of her journals and vanished from the internet :(

This makes me worried. I hope everything's ok with Kelly :( :(

Could anyone here get in touch with her IRL, like over the phone or something? I've tried emailing her but I doubt I'll get a response if she's erasing every account she has. Worried. =(

Kelley's WordPress blog's still up. She does mention on her last entry about wanting to delete that blog, but that she didn't want to delete it incase it helped other people, so maybe she just deleted her lj accounts instead.

i think i have (quite) a few pictures from that gallery saved

We might be soon enlisting your help then! ;P I'll start a gallery up in a few days if there aren't any leads and so on.

that's fine ^^ i'll be happy to help!

OK, I've sort of determined that much of what hasn't been found yet is the majority of the big scans (from: Boag, bornagirl76, deafmute, euchrid [though I think newgeneration just uploaded those], and xmetalmickeyx) so particularly if you have any of these on hand (though other things are fine as well), go for .zipping them at your leisure! No hurry ^_^ I think some GIFs and screencaps might've been lost as well, but these are easy enough to recover from the actual videos on YouTube and whatnot.

October 12 2009, 21:43:51 UTC 2 years ago

i have quite a few of bornagirl.
i'll just throw in what i can find by the people you mentioned.

[info]xxstaybeautiful

October 12 2009, 21:53:38 UTC 2 years ago

here you go.
there's a bit of bornagirl in it, and some other stuff as well.
quite unorganized and loads of nicky lol (sorry XD)

Thank you! I've added it to the main entry - I hadn't saved some of these, either! And no need to say sorry for loads of Nicky :D

UPDATE: Shoestring posted a rar of the pics they'd saved over in response to my quest on the Manics Tumblr - grab them here!: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Y4KU5IVY

The only thing I ever remembered to keep was the gallery of NME Originals scans I did ages ago in case that gallery ever went down.

Thank you so much - I hadn't saved these!!!

[info]newgeneration

I've got a decent-sized collection - chalk it up to obsessive saving over the years. :) They're not organized very well, and I've lost the information for most of the people who scanned the clippings originally, but I'd be happy to send you some zips if you need.

[info]mooglefan

October 4 2009, 05:42:01 UTC 2 years ago

Yes, that would absolutely be very helpful if you can! :D I just added a .zip to the original post of what I'd had and uploaded too (around 800 pics). If we all band together, I think we'll have most of it assembled! http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ANE1V9KB

[info]newgeneration

October 11 2009, 00:16:34 UTC 2 years ago

Eek. Sorry it's taken me so long to do this, there are a lot of pictures D: Are you looking for anything in particular, or should I just start zipping chunks of photos and uploading them?

[info]mooglefan

October 12 2009, 19:19:49 UTC 2 years ago

The stuff I'm missing the most of and haven't been able to really find elsewhere are the majority of the big scans (from: Boag, bornagirl76, deafmute, euchrid, and xmetalmickeyx), so if you happened to have any of this, that would be excellent! If you want to .zip other stuff too, feel free, but no hurry or anything - any help at all is appreciated :)

[info]newgeneration

October 12 2009, 21:17:10 UTC 2 years ago

No problem. I'll do a few tonight and keep going over the next few days. Here's 1991, 1992 and 'other'. I think these were euchrid's, but I've long since lost any sort of documentation for most of my pictures (unless it's actually stamped on the photo, like most of bornagirl's).

[info]newgeneration

October 12 2009, 21:36:39 UTC 2 years ago

euchrid - 1993

Thank you!!! I'll edit the entry and add these links as they're coming along. YOU ARE A BRILLIANT PERSON. :D
