Users listen,

if you use the "offline-image"-feature, be sure that you have made a backup from your'e offline-image left.

:arrow: Yawcam overwrite it with its default "offline-image"

Malun, please make a backup or give users the choice to overwrite it!
My sweety bird on my birdshousing was deleted and I dont have any backup.... pitty, next bird com again, hope so :wink:

P.S.: I used the update-variant from Yawcam

Yes, the OfflineImage.jpg located in yawcam's img directory will be overwritten with the original image when you update or install the new version of Yawcam.
So, if you have replaced this image with an own image it will be overwritten! But if you just have choosed an other image from the offlineImage settings in yawcam your image will not be overwritten.
If you want to use a custom offline image don't use the same name and replace the original one! Then you risk that it will be overwritten.

Sorry about the bird Alex!
