Probably this is related to my issues with DeskScapes, doesn't show any backgrounds/wallpapers, everything is just blank. Uninstalled/reinstalled, used the DSPurge script, etc. no luck.

I can confirm that the Latest Backgrounds are missing from DeskScapes.

I think all these problems are related to T-Man's reply #52 in this thread. This would happen in DNS problems and faulty connections to the Gallery...along with Lightstar's/Sed' preview problems, etc.

Keeping on eye on this, we are in the middle of some large upgrades for our infra and moving things around but it's not expected that this would break as we migrate.

SED, they're aware of the issues and working on a fix , until then I would think just upload like normal and when its fixed you'll know it

Right now dream files 100 - 150 mb won't upload.
Dream flies in the 90's mb and below will.
They know about this and are looking into it for the fix, so for now limit your
Files sizes below 100mb

Looks to me like uploading walls is back to normal. As for Dreams, there looks to be a file size problem as Az has noted. Thanks, Mike.
Patience is a virtue.

Thank you AZ and Doc, not a problem, I just didn't know what was going on! I am a old fisherman, so Patience is my middle name (Actually its Dale) but thank you both once more it is much appreciated!

Preview image issue is back, I tried absolutely everything to get it to show up. Nothing worked. https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/wallpapers/58948/

This should now be fixed.
The background (see what I did there) on this is we are working on trying to stop all the bots that are hitting the site at an extremely high rate.
