Isn't there a way that you could get it to automatically backup everyday?



If only it were that easy. Backing up a site that is a few gigs is a pain.... hirescovers is a monster (in webspace terms) and requires a little more specialist approach. A lot of lessons have been learnt by the events of the past few days :-)

Glad to have the site back, really missed it.

Found another bug when replacing one of my covers (The Dark Knight v5) with an updated improved version, no preview pic or thumbnail was generated.

I also tried uploading two new covers and one which was lost in the back up and they seem to have failed. I guess this was due to the 2MB limit mentioned above, should I try again?

Yes, please try again now. You should be alright to upload, but not replace.

Had just tried to upload the new covers again before your last post and still no luck, just jumped back to the "upload file" screen. Will hold off till it's sorted anyway, thanks for getting back to me Baz. :D

Any news regarding the gallery. It seems to be going backwards as far as posts go. Images that were available this morning are no longer available now. As well a number of my labels that were available this morning are no longer on the site. And the Upload seems to be busted still. Just looking for a status or a comment saying you're aware of the problems and are working on it is all. I don't care how long it takes I just wanna stay informed as I'd like to re-up the missing label and some new ones when things start working again.

The best coversite on the net is up and running

Read this entire thread and please be patient. A site this massive will need some time to get back to where it was. Thanks bud.
