Anyone else unable to upload photo's ?
I keep trying to upload a photo… a message comes saying internet service was interupted…. I have no problem with my internet connection.. does Redbubble have even more problems?

Site outage and cleanupHello,
Today we had a major site outage. There was a power blackout in the Melbourne CBD – where our data centre, Primus Telecom, is located. The data centre has a backup generator for these situations – but the backup generator failed. So our servers were without power for about four hours. When Primus finally restored power we discovered that the sudden power outage caused some problems with our systems – we’re currently scanning all of our systems to try to track down all the problems. As a result we’ve had to switch over to some back up systems and restore some data from backup.
Effectively, the site is currently in ‘safe mode’.
What this means is that we’ve turned off all new image uploading until we fully restore all systems and some files that were recently uploaded will not be available until we restore the relevant backup. We’re also operating the site on 60% of our servers – so it will be a little underpowered while we bring the others back on line in about 10 hours. While the site warms up over the next 30 minutes or so people will see 503 errors … so you may have to exercise a little patience.
Thanks for your understanding,
Peter
