I was beginning to wonder. The last few days have been insufferable trying to get on, with pages not loading every other try or so.
In the future, it would be nice to know of website outages earlier, before wasting time trying to load stuff while thinking the problem is on the user's end.
I hope sxc.hu are able to resolve the issue quickly.Love SXC!
I'm trying to sign in with my existing account, but cant get through. It's reporting a 503 error. I've been checking every 10 minutes or so for a couple of hours now, Also tried creating a new account, no luck. On a Mac, 10.5.8, tried both Firefox and Safari browsers. Any idea when you will be back up?
Give it a shot now.
It's 24th Feb. Yesterday I discovered that the sxc.hu site seems to have lost all its photos! There's no submit button on the comment form and no way to add a comment to the forum. Any idea what's going on?
Care to email me if anyone is there?
http://www.sxc.hu/ is working fine as far as I can tell. Can you try clearing your cache and trying again?
