I guess everything is back. The last work of mine is back in moderation and what was in moderation is no longer there. Are there still issues to remedy?

I think it's still a little off. I noticed at least the screenshots gallery is missing stuff that was posted earlier today. So I'd guess they're still fixing stuff.

Hi,

What you are noticing is that we lost 12 hours of data due to a database corruption.  Over the past month we have been migrating our databases from a 24 hour back-up to 8 hour.  This is one of the databases that was still on a 24 hour back-up cycle.  What does this mean?

If you uploaded something to Wincustomize between 5am on 10/27/2009 and 5pm EST on the same day, you are going to have to upload it again.

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Regards,

Zargon

Thanks, but no worries.  I made it a sticky post and Island Dog will post an article on this tomorrow.

Just another speed bump on the information superhighway. Thanks for keeping everyone informed.

Now it seems today's downloads have been reset. When I click on the "skins" tab on the homepage it shows 0 downloads today. (and I think I should have at least 1....)

 

Also, looking through the galleries, if you click downloads today, it shows mostly 0 and 1 downloads......

 

I'm guessing the number of downloads for today has been reset? Kinda weird stuff going on here lately.....
