This thread started as a short-lived GAOTD notice from and drew the usual pushback from and moderation action by . For anyone who arrives later looking for practical help: the giveaway itself is no longer the point. Below are concise, actionable recovery steps, tool guidance, and safety notes that actually help when photos need to be recovered — plus the moderation tip mentioned in the replies.

Safe recovery workflow (do these in order): stop using the affected card or drive immediately to avoid overwriting. Make a bit-for-bit image of the device and work only on that image. On Unix-like systems a common imaging command is:

sudo dd if=/dev/sdX of=/path/to/device-image.img bs=4M conv=sync,noerror

Replace /dev/sdX and the output path. Use a dedicated imager or a hardware write-blocker on Windows if possible. Run recovery tools against the image file and always save recovered files to a different physical drive than the source.

Tool and technique notes: as observed, full-disk suites often find more than photo-only tools, so try more than one program — different tools use different carving and signature databases. Common approaches are quick file-table recovery first, then deep/file-carving scans. If recovered JPEGs open partially or have header errors, try a second-pass deep scan or a header-repair utility. Verify recovered files before deleting the image or returning the media to use.

Safety and moderation: never install recovery software onto the media you are trying to recover. Confirm any giveaway registration key is legitimate and scan installers before running them. For repeat promo posts or suspected spam, follow ’s practical advice and flag the post so moderators can review it.

Most people already know about GAOTD.
Most people don't need to recover photos. and if they do, they need to recover more than just photos, so they go with easeus disk recovery or similar.

in short, nobody cares
in truth, I don't care.

Let us know when something VALUABLE, that you can't get a decent FREEWARE for comes up, like acronis trueimage, or easeus disk recovery, or paragon virtual, (oh that's right, they have already done those...)

Don't worry. The OP was just spamming another product. I removed the links.

yea thanks.

I have seen a lot of these turn up recently. I have been wondering who to show them to. The Admins I know (cscgal & Jbennet) don't seem to be around much at the moment. I IM'd them about some guys posting about Random products. VERY good tutorials (they are ususally pretty dodgy), but obviously some kind of spamming.

they usually have:
1. Newb poster
2. 1-5 posts, total (all of them for products for one company)
3. No feedback or Rep Points

4. Active Links in the post
5. Interesting, cryptic or high priority posts
6. high views, very few comments
7. Plus, when you have seen it a few times, you just 'get the feeling...'


Q? :::
(yes I am hijacking this farsical post)

how do get to admin around here? is 10.000+posts a prerequisite? :-P

Feel free to PM me.

You can just flag what you believe to be a problem post by hitting the "Flag Bad Post" at the top of each post.
That will bring it to the relevant Mod's attention.

You cannot work your way up to Admin solely by posting :).
