Re: Database

[Forevever]

I've gotten a few emails over the last few days requesting copies of my skins. They said they were having problems downloading from WA's database.

Ok so I checked with Mr J, who said they probably have some kind of firewall preventing them from downloading. Which makes perfect sense to me because I don't have a firewall, and never had the same problem.

This morning, I got an email from "Raven". Attached was a copy of my Obsidian. Only now its blue and black... He didn't do a terrible job, but like I told him, I will do it up real nice later since I have the original templates, and changing one small aspect will be no issue.

But anywayz, I'm losing my train of thought here... "Raven" asked me for an opinion on his/her skin which is located at..
http://www.winamp.com/skins/detail.jhtml?componentId=71842
so I been there 3 times, I even disconnected from the internet and reconnected, trying to download this AmP. Download? I can't even see the screen shot.

It's no secret to me that there are issues within the database due to updating and upgrading, but I'm wondering if its something specific, how long till its fixed, or maybeif its just a "morning" thing.

Thanks.

Try browsing any of the skin sections, no images anywhere, same with plugins, thats why i yanked the mikropack post i did yesterday.

Submissions also looked fucked, review tools are also down, even my access to the intranet feels a little freaky this morning.

Tricky to fix with no dedicated web dev team, oh well :)
