Dead here too.

A bit earlier it went with "0% of your profile is complete" and lost all my image. again too.

When will they actually admit their entire IT infrastructure is so badly overloaded it needs a severe and immediate upgrade.  All aspects of their site have been slow or unreliable for months.

...and now this:

Quote
Shutterstock will be down for maintenance for about an hour.
It should be back up by midnight Eastern standard time. We apologize for the inconvenience.

They really need to sort out their entire set of servers rapidly.  Why do i suspect some lost sales for people here...!

I'm not seeing that message at all.  :o

very slow.

Post by: Poncke on January 17, 2013, 11:19
I am not getting any messages and they are back up but very slooooow. But if they are down till midnight, that would be some severe downtime then.
Title: Re: Shutterstock down?
Post by: gnirtS on January 17, 2013, 11:21
I get it sometimes off them when im trying now.

I looks like a stock message for a server time out, says back in an hour then mentions midnight.  Just a placeholder they forgot to change when a timeout happens.

Post by: Poncke on January 17, 2013, 11:21
I am getting the maintenance message as well now, but how can an hour of maintenance be down to midnight? Its 1120 am in NY. That must be an old message or something.

+1

But for a few minutes it didn't work at all
Title: Re: Shutterstock down?
Post by: CJ6 on January 17, 2013, 11:28
And IS is just as bad now. It is for days, but not like today, loading the site for a minute or more. I wonder what are my earnings going to be today. So far they're normal, but I guess they'll fall of a cliff. Because those 2 sites account for almost 80% of my earnings...

It's only the Submit side that is down. The buyers' side appears unaffected.

Dear Contributors,

Everything is back up and running.

Should you encounter an issue such as an interstitial page notifying you of "maintenance," simply hit refresh and things should revert back to normal.

As always, your patience is appreciated.

No, it's really not. The panel in upper right where stats are shown is blank. Graphs will overall sales isn't loading. This is in Chrome.

In IE, stats load, but graphs don't.

In Firefox, it loads correctly. All latest versions

edit: another refresh in chrome gave me the Shutterstock will be down for maintenance for about an hour.
It should be back up by midnight Eastern standard time. We apologize for the inconvenience.

can we know what are you guys working on? changes on the contributor side?

Site is up, but can't look at or modify sets.
Title: Re: Shutterstock down?
Post by: dbvirago on January 17, 2013, 21:32
Nope. down again. Back up in an hour or midnight, whichever comes first. or last. Why can't the developers screw around on the weekends? When they say, this change won't affect anything, they are lying to you.

Hello everyone,

The nature of the bug / issue is that it's not something that affects everyone at all times, which is why one user might report the submission process as fine and another will report seeing problems.  The team is actively working on a fix right now; we'll update when that's in place.

Best,

Scott

Thanks Scott for keeping us updated. I think most of us here love SS
Oh, one more thing while your fixing that bug - can you get rid of Attila while your cleaning house?  ;)

Hello,

OK, we believe the issue should be fixed.  Please report any additional issues to support. 

Modviz - I can't replicate any issue with videos.  Have you tried different browsers, or emptying your cache, checking your connection, etc...?

In general, if you've experienced issues and you're still seeing them, it's best to close your browser windows and start a new session, clear your browser cache, etc..., to see if the problem persists.

Best,

Scott
