I have been trying to upload the entire time, every day, seeing if it will work. I have tried all the suggestions too. I submitted a new account app as "dancontrinosclone". I'm hoping it will get activated and I can upload through that. People need to see my poor quality shots, Graham!

Can't see it, can't comment! __________________ "The future's uncertain and the end is always near." - The Doors "Roadhouse Blues".

I do one thing, which Marcos recommended, which is resizing on Flickr to "medium". Thankyou guys for the new account. __________________ I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this s*#t on me?

Hammerfel Administrator Offline --> Posts: 1,365 --> Join Date: Feb 2005	Here's what Sean, our server admin, had to say: "FWIW, I am able to upload images and I also logged into the server and chmod'd all the files and folders in /dioramas/files/ +777, so there shouldn't be any problems creating new files or folders. If some users have problems with specific folders, we can check if there are permission issues with those folders. As for some people not seeing images, I believe there may be two different issues: 1) People using proxies to get around firewalls (china, etc.?) will likely never have great success because the thing that's blocking their access is probably also doing deep packet inspection to block specific content. 2) "Smart" caching proxies may have cached page content while the server was missing images and are not updating for some reason. That's the only explanation I have for some users seeing everything and others only 75% of the images." __________________ Read Hammerfel's Dio Story, "Disciple" here My Want List - Help me complete my Dios!

Darklon Member Offline --> Posts: 80 --> Join Date: Mar 2009	I'am experiencing problems just for getting into this site with google chrome. Some months ago, I entered this site without any problem. Recently, I had to go to the link of some topic, the main site wasn't available. And now I can only enter via Internet Explorer, which is a lot slower. With Firefox I have mixed results, sometimes good some others the same as chrome. This isn't a critical problem but is very annoying, any hint of what to do? __________________

Makes sense. Would that mean this particular issue can be solved by "touching" all images that were created on the server during the problem period, thus forcing those proxies to update their caches ?
