I just checked (11:30pm pacific time) and here was this note . The site was up for a while today and then went down again.

"Dear 123RF Customers and Contributors,

these disruptions and we anticipate that our service will be online by 12 AM EST latest.

We would like to offer you a discount code (123promo) that will entitle you to an extra 20% discount on your next purchase as

Well you sure have to give them credit.  20% is a generous discount. 

I can think of at least one site that had a lot of down time awhile back and didn't offer a discount for the inconvenience...
