Server restart

[admin]

Some of you have commented about slowness or access issues to the site over the past couple of weeks. The server has been slowing down due to a memory leak in one of the programs we run. We're fixing that leak but we will need to restart the server several times over the course of the next few days. So if you find the site down, please try us again later. Thanks for your patience.

Have just noticed that the "latest photos" selection (in the "header") has gone haywire and seems to be giving random images :err:.

This seemed to have worked for me. After many weeks of rarely being able to connect. I have had no problems since the restart

Thanks

Keep on reading this as "Server redstart" . . . what sort of a bird is that?? :laugh:

Can now confirm (having just uploaded an image) that the "Recent Photos" is not working.

Taking an absolute eternity to load all day today (though it does, eventually) - no surprise that there's been no new posts at all

Have to change the button 'Post Quick Reply' to 'Post Slow Reply' . . . :ohdear:

edit: nearly a quarter hour just to add this short post :eek:
