Ok skyfish. BTW, do you upload illustrations or photos ? if illustrations, do you upload eps + jpeg in a zip file (as I usually do without any problems) ?...
thanks

Based on how sales have been there recently I don't think upload problems are going to make any difference, unfortunately - it seems to be on life support just waiting for the end

Same FTP problem for my EPS/JPG inside ZIP for about a month. I opened a support ticket and have not received a response. So I upload directly through the website now. No problems with that method. Sales are steady for me.

Thanks Striving.
Will try to upload via website, but it will be much more pain than with the ftp system goddxxxd... that used to be really efficient
BTW, sales seems to move up again since a few days (january and february were awful => 30/40$ where I used to do between 120/150$ before...

Yes, website upload is the only workaround. No response from support for months for me.
