Is anyone else having problems seeing the pictures in the gallery?
All seem to be missing

Yep, the thumbnails seem to have gone... the full size images are still there though. I'm sure pixuk will be along in a minute to fix. :)

Ah good.
as I am away and using my lappy, I wasn't sure if it was a problem with that. :)

Well, I don't think there's a major problem, some server-side glitch I think. I dunno if Pix will be along to fix it shortly - he's on holiday til Friday :D

Cheers

This is possibly due to someone posting a link to the V-Flyer photo gallery on the BA forum on Flyertalk here. Perhaps it has overloaded Pix's server?

Certainly doing no harm to publicity for the site though! Even dnw (BA staff member) says it's fantastic :).

In the world of web development "shortly" is a minimum of a week. At least that's what I tell my clients. :D

Funny, in Technical Services, we class it as a minimum of a fortnight ;):D:D

Sheesh! ... You UK types are amazingly prompt!

Here in the US in the IT department of the company I work for any correction (uhmmmm ... I mean "modification") of a "feature" is considered to be a fast track if it done in the same quarter!!

Oh, I was just talking about support ;)
Fixing "features" or "enhancements" in the same quarter? Unheard of :D

I finally cleared a call off our Helpdesk yesterday that was a year and a half old.

BlackCat - a week, wow you guys must be expensive to get that kind of service! When I was in the Web Design Agency it would take us a week to think about writing the e-mail. The mail server was also my desktop for my first three weeks on the job.

On v-flyer I've been getting a few "Service Unavailable" messages recently, leave it for a few mins and the all is good again.

Foz :o)

Think I've sorted out the Thumbnail problem. The Server Unavailable issue is more an ongoing problem when the server gets overloaded. A page refresh normally sorts it out.

Hi Pix,
sorry to be a pain, but I am still not getting the thumbnails.

Odd, it was working up until half and hour ago... Hmmm... let me investigate.

No thumbs here, glad it's not my laptop acting up again.

Looking at it, I think it something my ISP has done to bring down the .NET part of the site (.NET is used for the thumbs). Thankfully that's the only bit that uses .NET, otherwise the whole site would be down [xx(]
