Title: Featurepics site down??
Post by: HughStoneIan on January 04, 2008, 18:40

Is anyone else having problems getting to the Featurepics website?  I haven't been able to sign on all day.  I don't remember seeing a notice on the their site yesterday about scheduled down-time.  ???

Ya, I haven't been able to FTP or get into their site either.

Yes, quite annoying.  I hope it's not a serious problem!   :(

It's back up again.  Weird.  They never seem to have site/server problems.


Late note added:  I can get to the main page, but can't seem to go anywhere else except the forum.

I encountered some problems yesterday too, but today everything seems to be working.

Yes, it's working again, and I even got a sale.

The email I sent them yesterday however returned.

Hi Friends;
Well, Happy New Year. We have not had a great day. Murphy's Law has hit us right in the butt. First, Power went down in Santa Cruz, where our servers are, at 4:00 this morning. The three batteries we didn't replace on the latest maintenance, blew. Took us 5 hours to find replacements, 2 hours to get them in, and another hour to come up.

We are working and will be online shortly.
Thanks for your patience.

Regards,
Adelaide
