Alert: Site Maintenance Mnnday, March 6

Freddy - that was not directed at you - it was the poster above us

Ok - it's not letting me quote for some reason - but it's been great meeting you Freddy - have a great day. I hear they have some of the images up - which means at least ONE server is back up and that's a good thing.

I have a ton of photography to do - and I really don't feel like it, but the kids are in school, so I guess I better hop to it..


Get it... Hop to it.... LOL

Freddy the Frog. What was the name of that show. I remember it was on like 5:30am and there was a frog, and owl, and a hippo I think? It wasn't "The Great Space Coaster" It was something else I remember I used to watch it but can't remember the name.

The idea behind the SD thing was if you had listings ending last night and today while they were working on moving the servers you'd still have images working on ebay. Then there is no reason to bitch. By the way tomass doesn't pull the plug on the free account until the 15th so thats 45 days and also since he the free 30 day trial would end on the 4th, 5th or 6th you'd get an extra month and that is right out of merrygolds mouth. She told me that when I joined and I had 2 free months. Also why would you need those images when auctiva is back up? All the ads are seved here and are being moved to the new servers. It was just a suggestion. It worked like a charm for me.

I opened 3 listings on 3 different pages but none of the images have loaded yet but if people are seeing images thats a good sign. THey just haven't got to the ones I opened yet.

geez, people relax already

I'm off to go enjoy some warm FL sunshine before the cold front moves through and it gets chilly!

Be happy

Its getting warmer here too. Windows open kitties watching the birds.

LOL!! They haven't gotten to any of mine yet either But they are definitely working on it. Now I am really gonna go.


You are talking about the New Zoo Revue - I used to read the book too. Wow! Really great minds....

Yeah thats it. Now I have the song in my head.

"It's The New Zoo Review, Coming On To You"
and now you have it too.

Just thought I should mention that my eBud just started updating correctly (or so I assume LOL). Pictures aren't showing up in any of my ads yet, and I suspect that could take some time, but at least eBud working is a positive sign.

Some people have images on some of their listings - that's a very positive sign - all is not lost! It will be back

Actually Freddy,
I have never seen the New Zoo Review. I was too young for that when it was out I think - I only had a little picture book

I saw it in re-runs it used to be on at 5am I think. I see it on sometimes on PBS.

But I liked the great space coaster better.

I don't think I ever saw that either. I liked
Sesame Street, Electic Company, 321 Contact and Reading Rainbow. I seriously never watched anything else - told you I was a geek!

I was and still am a huge muppet show fan.

LOL You guys are REALLY making me feel OLD since I am old enough to not only have watched all of these programs on a regular basis, but can clearly remember them today ! Maybe the fact that I can actually remember means I am not that old yet LOL. I thought I already had enough stress on my plate today LOL

Haha, yeah, but I think it's something like "...coming right at you".

"Coming on to you" would be just a little bit creepy...

I liked the electric company and sesame st too. I still watch when I see it. I hope they get the site working soon because I am supposed to be off tomorrow and I usually get listings done for tuesday and wednesday on monday and tuesday. I am going to be at the Metropolitan Museum all day tomorrow so I can't work. Oh and Saturday I am going to see this

http://www.bodiestheexhibition.com/

http://images.google.com/images?q=bodies+the+exhibition...=N&tab=ii&oi=imagest

OOPS I forgot they are al nakkie pics. Sorry.

Well it is turning out to be a rather beautiful day here in post-Katrina Lousiana. The sun is shining, it's 66 degrees with a cool breeze....and my 5 cats are basking in the sun on my patio about 5 feet from their feeding bowls and 3 robins are pecking at the food and the cats could care less - that's a sign to me that Auctiva was really telling all of us we deserve an extra day off LOL. I have plenty off yard work I can do si I think I'll make good use of my time. Maybe when I come back inside everything will be up and running better than before. Is that wishful thinking ? Am I jinxing it ? If so, maybe I'll just turn on PBS and see if I can find Sesame Street and regress back into a childhood state LOL.

Hey - You don't have to be THAT old to watch those shows.

I also LOVED the muppets. I go to Disney about 3 times a week and they have a Muppet show there in 3D that is so funny!

Hey - they aren't nakie - they are skinless! LOL - they same exhibition was going to come down through here too.

Oh dear, LOL am I in the louge topics? LOL
Little of this topice guys... But anyhow.. anybody else have some photos up??

Did you see the picture of of the one holding it's skin?

looks like mine are not up yet. but I am only looking at one listing right now.

speaking of skinless, HOT DOGS anyone??? I am making lunch.

I am new.
Nope, no pictures on any of my Auctiva hosted auctions.....*sigh*, hope it will be worth the wait.
& Yes, I sell/buy insurance as often as possible.

Hmmm Lunch already??

its a very easy site to work from once you get the hang of it and they get it working again. It has been great for months.

I myself have over 200 auctions going with no pictures at all. Like the rest of you. anyways for about 10 of the auctions what i did was go to the revise your auction. Go to edit pictures.
Downloaded the ebay enhanced picture service active x control and Posted my pictures from my harddrive. On these 10 auctions i now have pictures. Hope this helps. takes a while to do this

Yeah, like I have all year to do this for nearly 600 listings, lol.

I find it very funny that of all the things working here today (very little, lol), the REFER A FRIEND link at the top of the page is there, lol. Yeah, like I would subject my friends to this KNOWINGLY!!

no one said do 600 listings just do the ones that are likely to be bid on or are going to end today.

HI MICHELLE!!!!

sharky

Well...it's been almost the 12 hours they said it might be. Any updates?

Anyone out there able to use the site to post auctions yet? If so where is it, I cant find anything. I thought it was to be back up, if so how about some directions from Support.

Hi Sharky! I don't have time to bother with that though. I need to do NEW stuff, which I am somewhere else until this is resolved.

Well, some parts of the service is up now - eBud is working and some people are starting to see images - that means they have at least one server up - It's actually not officially 12 hours until noon - about 20 more minutes EST, but they have a long way to go. We will see.

where else can we use free?? Besides Ebay and that charges so much for multi pictures?

You can also hand code your listings if you know HTML and not have to pay for the multiple images - just use a free site host to host them like image bucket. Lots of work if you ask me. I will just be patient. I write enough HTML without having to do it in ebay too.

That was my suggestion the other day and people wre like "I don't have the time to do all that" and I basically told them how to use SD and get the codes and revise their listings so they worked off SD. Which we both know is a crap shoot. Mostly because SD is a crappy site. Now it's too late and everyone panics. (Not meaning you) All we can do is wait. I did it on saturday but only for listings ending last night. I dont have any ending today. I am not allowed to use BIN.
