Just checked and all seems to be operating ok on the hosting side .Possibly it was a connectivity issue between your service provider and the host in Switzerland -O- Did you get an error or did it just fail to connect/timeout ?

I got the "could not connect to server" message.
Tried on 2 web browsers from my desk top.
Safari on my ipad and 4G on my phone.
Same for all 3 devices.

Was uploading some photos to the "Battle of the Sexes - Birds" thread.
Timed out during an upload and then that was it when I tried to log on again

Managed to get onto some other websites, so don't think it was a problem with my connection. -O-

I also get locked out after having posted say 3 or more pics in one post. It goes through, then AW stalls and I have to restart the PC! @#$

Never used to happen, only the last month or so. :no:

Could be something similar?? -O-
I had posted a few photos in a "Favorites Routes" thread.
And was then posting in the " KNP Bird and Mammal Challenges".

So I had uploaded quite a few photos in a short period of time.

Dzombo, I always have that problem when attaching multiple photos and I have to reboot my router. I now only attach one or two pics then go out of the topic completely and back in again (but it will sometimes still happen). :O^ Roger has looked at this problem but it does not seem that there is a solution.

Alternatively I use Tinypic.
