Anyone else having difficulties with images loading?
Several profile and townie pics just simply refuse to show themselves to me today. I thought it might be my internet connection, but all other sites are loading fine and the lost images are consistently the same ones (the rest are fine).

Thank you :-)
In my opinion this is one kind of service that may be a development team could be responsible to take care of ;-)
It's a job that's very valueable in the community, but it does not have to make a direct impact on the game ;-)
- it's just helping everyone to be happy, and know that there are someone who are willing to take care of problems that come up ;-)
- and in my opinion, you don't need to have the name Ben Ringold to do this kind of work...? I guess that the community would be better served if he was able to use his effort elsewhere...?

Hi all,
As Jojo noted, all Sleuth images are hosted on Amazon's Simple Storage Service, which usually works well for that purpose (and at a reasonable cost). Unfortunately, the service is down right now, so I've had to switch over image hosting to our main web server. Images will probably load a little slower than usual, but you're probably not likely to notice a big difference either way.
This will be a bigger issue for Shades of Mystery, but I'll try to work out a similar solution there.
Sorry for the inconvenience. (And thanks Jojo and CTown for helping to keep everybody informed on the situation).
