it is not just you I noticed for the past week or maybe less it has been a little slow.... might just be the high traffic and WinXP release, but who knows... Oh maybe the admins

We're in the process of copying data from Verio to UUNet (our new hosting provider). Verio is in Michigan, UUNet in Georgia and all being done via remote control.

definetly understandable, and good luck with the transfers Frogboy. It is not like there are only a few megs to transfer.

It's been slow for me since it's introduction. I'm in California and I even have a broadband connection.

Can't help you SpaceGhost in that case. Things may change once we're on UUnet since the route to the site will completely change.

(or anyone else)

...I was just wondering what the details are (as in 'what happens') when you say that "We're in the process of copying data from Verio to UUNet"....is that like an ftp transfer???

...call me lame for asking...but i'm just the designer...not the sys admin
(BTW...ummm....yeah, i do know how to use a computer 'doh!)

Trans: It means they are fishing out all the XP crap with a bloody big net and sending it back to Bill Gates.
Bill can't see his front lawn now, for all the XP crap piled on it!!

Yet another thread going off topic from the anti-XP duo... not that I mind, it keeps this site interesting

Just an update, we're still moving to UUnet. Expect another day or two of major pain.

Is the move why new submissions don't show up yet?

Something is wrong! it's over 12 hours since Trans and I uploaded our XP walls. I don't know why the admins haven't posted a note about it, but there have been NO new submissions since FoF uploaded his "Moppy" theme, and that was AGES ago!
BoXXi BoXXi continues to polish his XP glassy bits......... Yawn.....

yeah....I jumped outta bed this morning and raced to the computer to see our xp walls...but alas, nothing

Do we need to re-upload them, or will they make it in there eventully?

Hmmm, I don't see anything in the inbound from Boxxi. You may want to reupload it.

We've deifnitely had some problems with scripting in the last 2 days. Part of the site is on UUnet, part is on Verio.

hey Brad.....can you see mine in there, or should i reupload too???

I just re-uploaded again, and still nothing appears. There is deinitely something amiss in the scripting.
I'm going to bed, and hope it's all fixed in the morning.
See Ya!
