Missing image files from art library and pages

I logged back into a campaign I am the GM of for the first time in a few weeks only to find that some of my image files are broken or missing from both my art library and from some of the pages I had already made. The files are listed in my art library, but show a broken file icon and cannot be seen or used. The pages that featured these files have some things remaining, but the broken/missing files are no longer present. The only thing I can think of that I might have done myself is perhaps I deleted them when I started working on another campaign a couple of weeks ago. My other campaign has nothing missing from the pages, but the same files seem to be missing/broken in my art library. I am having this issue in both Firefox and Chrome, and I already followed the steps for solving technical issues after reading about a similar issue in an old post which did not seem to make any difference. Please help! I'd love to avoid having to redo several pages of my campaign that I put so much love into already. 
Hello anamelessfear, I am sorry to hear that you have encountered this issue with broken art assets. If you did delete them previously, that would account for these broken images now. However, if you can provide the name of the campaign, as well as the time you first noticed this issue, I can pass this information along to the devs to look into this issue. Thanks. 
The campaign is called "Nubz: the Awakening" and I first noticed the issue Saturday, 6/1/19. Thanks.
Update: poking around a bit more I noticed there were some files missing that I definitely would not have removed myself, including tokens for my players' characters. Other files just seem to be broken. 
If you delete art out of the library than it will remove/break the journal links utilizing that art. I've found a lot of times I'll accidentally delete something and then realize it was used somewhere else. I've solved this by utilizing the folder system in the art library. I'm not sure if any of that applies to your problem with missing art.
Hello anamelessfear, After taking a look, it seems as though the items you deleted previously are the cause for this issue. If an image is deleted from your Recent Uploads, even images for character tokens, it is deleted from your library. Unfortunately, this means that we are unable to recover those images. To prevent this issue in the future, please visit the Art Library wiki on how to manage your images. We hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, feel free to let us know.
Thank you for your help.
Hello again anamelessfear, I am going ahead and closing this thread. Feel free to open a new thread if you have any additional questions or concerns. Thanks.
