After increasing issues with the old site, we were forced to accelerate the move process for 2draw.net. Apologies for the unexpected downtime. The new server is a nice upgrade from the old server and allows us to more easily expand in the future.

As with any move, things may be in the wrong place or broken, so let us know if you find any problems!

Thanks for your patience and happy drawing!

Marcello

Well, we can't say that for sure until everyone switches over to the new site and the site has to handle the full brunt of the intarwebs (it takes a while for ISPs to update their DNS records to point to the new site).

I love when you talk dirty.... It's much faster changing pages, etc,,but for some reason, it's still very slow to respond if you click on your own name to go to your own gallery

you know what's kind of weird? I saw davincipoppalag's dirty talk comment a while ago (which must have been after the switch) but then afterwards, a couple hours ago, I started getting the message page about the switch and that the DSN records may take awhile to update. So basic order of events for me seems to have been 1. switch occures and you make this post, 2. davincipoppalag comments on it about 12 hours ago now and I see the comment sometime after that, 3. I'm later unable to access any 2draw page because of the message about the switch, 4. and I'm now obviously able to use 2draw fine. It was just weird is all.

I think the main page seems to load faster, but the user pages are slower. At least slower than the main page is now, not necessarily slower than they were before.

Ok.. now if you're on the main page..and you click on a drawing, it takes you to the drawing, but it opens a new window to do it. I clicked on a picture..then hit back and nothing happened, I minimized the window with the picture in it, and lo and behold there was the main page window still open. I minimized that and found there were 6 or 7 2draw windows open, as I had been browsing.. odd

that's something wrong with your computer, not 2draw. maybe your ctrl or shift (got stuck?

Loading time is way faster for me. Great job :D
Sometimes it would take several minutes to load a single page. This is a nice change.

it was weird again, for the past several hours I was back to having the DNS record update message. I've been trying to load 2draw for half the day and haven't been able to because of that. Hasn't my ISP updated the records yet? Especially since everything was viewable during my last post.

shanghai: it could be cached by various proxies between you and the US. try flushing your own dns cache by typing ipconfig /flushdns (on windows). it can take up to two days or so for the switch to be fully made...
