image and CSS issues this morning…
by brett ~ July 20th, 2008We’re sorry to report that we’re having some trouble this morning with images and css loading (see the header above? neither do we). Amazon S3 is currently down which means that our images and css are not getting served correctly and some site save operations are failing. I’ll update when we know more….
UPDATE: 2PM EST - S3 is still down, but we’ve got some CSS back up. Sidebars, thumbnails and many other images still missing.
UPDATE: 7:30PM EST - Finally. S3 is back. That was brutal. We are tremendously sorry that we weren’t prepared for this. Suffice to say that we are taking steps to lessen our dependency on S3 and make failover quick if/when this happens again. Like, right now.
