Yes, NY area. Uploading itself is OK, but getting to the upload page takes forever.

Here in The Netherlands the last weeks it's getting slower and slower. I have a fixed 120MB up/download line and ss used to be lightning fast, now it takes almost 10 minutes to upload 5 images

Well, i can see upload process very slow again, it is a big problem when you are a vector illustrator because you upload 2 files per illustration (.jpg and .eps) and usally they are big files... so it is taking almost forever to upload about 10 illustrations :(

Sorry for my English.
To overcome problems of slow connection Use a couple of months connections and services to iCloud.
It reduces load times to about 2 seconds per photo.
The cost is quite negligible, about $ 4 per month. :)

Definitely slower than it used to be for me.

It goes up and down on a file to file basis. Most files seems to be stuck ad 30 KB/s but every now and then a file transfers at around 3 MB/s... doesn't make any sense. But after almost eight years in this business I've learned that nothing makes any sense when it comes to site functionality...
