Your support makes all the difference.Witnesses have taken a huge number of photographs and video and some of it "may be of use to investigators", Sussex Police said.
But they urged people to also remember that many worried relatives are still looking for information.
In a statement, Sussex Police said: "It is not our place to dictate what may or may not be published anywhere, but from a personal perspective I would ask people to consider the feelings of those who have lost loved ones in this incident and, indeed, who may still not have heard from them and are seeking information.
"In the aftermath of the accident, we received a lot of calls from people who were worried about relatives and friends. We are working through these, but if the person you called us about has now turned up, please let us know so that we can remove them from our list."
Anyone with information can call 101 or 01273 470101 or they can email their images to
