a very little part of me thinks it's for the entering logo program, but i just read the power failures issue :( still bracing for it.

Are we likely to see the site up before 5pm Australian time?

The welcome page on istockphoto.com says the coupon *just* provided to us from this evening downtime expires on the 8th. Here in Arizona, it's the 8th for only two more hours. Did I miss something? How am I supposed to get my monitary provider in here to purchase anything in such a short timeframe?

How about something for those of us who buy in smaller qualities...those who don't have deep pockets. I've been working on a video trailer all day, and just when I need to go download the pictures I've selected...boom...you're down. I have one disappointed lady waiting for her trailer. :) I had a real hard time finding the $3.00 pictures. When did everything go up in price?

Thanks for the discount awesome! We can wait until you are back up to get some images.. thank god we're in front of schedule for once on a job and can wait. Good job guys....

Hey Julie, the code is good until May 8. Unless Arizona is in a REALLY different time zone, you should be able to use it for a while yet! :)

Julie, I'm sure you have plenty of time till 8th May, even in Arizona!

I need iStock!!!

Julie - I think it expires on May 8th, not April :-)

Here in Brazil we wait, 2h20 AM. I see the bright side: i got 15% DISCOUNT. Nice!!
If you want to wait until morning and giv'us more 15% coupon, no problem.

Kidding, good technical team.
best

OMG *facepalm* cringing in corner from embarrassment :'o(
A'hem. Thank you for bringing that to light. I swear I'm college-educated. Swear.

Just heard from the tech team that my latest logo upload was too awesome for the system and caused the power drain on the servers, sorry guys

Apr 8, 2010 at 23:36 | Unregistered Commenterdjfoss

bb: Unfortunately Mother Nature wreaked havoc on our backup plans as well.

Apr 8, 2010 at 23:36 | Unregistered CommenterMegan

@Megan - Yikes. Sounds like maybe a third one is needed for worse-case scenarios like this?

Kudos to the team who's up right now late at night fixing it!! I've worked in IT before and know exactly what they must be going through!

I want to feel safe, Please !! Don't make me fear! Hold me, Give me safety

Apr 8, 2010 at 23:43 | Unregistered CommenterBo

I feel lost, sad... need some images to get me happy...
Damme you DJFOSS and your awsome logo.

You tech team may call the brasilian indian from amazonas, they do some dance and singging and bring the rain when they need it, maybe, they could make it go away.
