Title: fotolia.com vs. fotolia.de
Post by: bbettina on May 31, 2007, 08:08

I have a question for you all.  I am sitting here in Germany eager to check my Fotolia account but am unable to do so.  Whenever I type in fotolia.com I get automatically redirected to fotolia.de and my password and username aren't accepted/known there.  I tried going through the link at the bottom of the page that says Fotolia US but the same happens.  I seem to be unable to open fotolia.com while here in Germany.
I tried fotolia Spain fro kicks and that worked.  Any suggestions how to deal with this?

Thanks,

Tina

Try browsing to www1.fotolia.com

If they're using hardware WSDs (website directors) to do the regional redirects this'll bypass them and go directly to one of the US servers. I can't test it to see if it works as I'm not in Germany.  :(

I'm currently in the UK and get the fotolia.co.uk address initially, but clicking the Fotolia US link at the bottom of the page gives me fotolia.com

I can't connect to the US site, even though I'm sitting right here at home.  Hopefully they are just migrating the site over to the new servers.
