Brickshelf back online.

The BSbackup doesn't work for me. When I use the "Get by ID" button, or the "Get by User" button, it says getting lists, and then sits there doing nothing. Anyone have any idea what 's going on. Am I doing something wrong?

I don't know. It occasionally does this to me as well, I just quit it (with Ctrl+Alt+Delete, sometimes) and open a new one.

Kelderic, let me know what you want and I'll get it since I don't seem to be having as much trouble today.

CAI=Cyin?
The Bombadil figure seems familiar, and I don't want to have to do an extra download if they're the same person. (Since CAI has been done)

Oh, and Freak, if you could and would,
chrisp, zizy2, saguesa, squieu, and kashiwa. I can't get th program to work today.

Yes, but they're hosted on Brickshelf. When Brickshelf is down, they don't appear

Ok, I'll save his pics then.

Nevermind, some other people have already saved hachi's pics.

Looks like something was going on with Maj, too– a second ago all the folders were empty and it listed there being "0 files in 0 folders", but now things look to be back again. Odd...

I wonder if the hiccup in Maj may be due to the massive Brickshelf downloading going on. Does anyone know how closely Maj and Brickshelf are interlinked? Would crashing one crash the other/

Thank you. However, I rebooted my computer, and this time my Norton Firewall popped up and asked if I wanted to allow it. After I clicked yes, it has been working just fine. This is great program.

"It" meaning Brickshelf? Brickshelf is not down yet, but on July 31, it will go down. Presumably, it will be "for good," that's why we are working to save notable folders, but only a few know anything for sure. At this point, it seems that Brickshelf will be gone forever and some other website (being devised by your friendly neighborhood ambassadors) will take Brickshelf's place as the main photo storage hub of the online LEGO community.

Search around the Announcements forum and the General LEGO Discussions forum a bit - you can easily find this information for yourself.

P.S. When asking questions, it is usually a safe practice to make clear who or what you are asking about and to put a question mark at the end of the sentence.

Alot of the functions have been turned off. Other than the search and search members function, the menu is blank. No Most Popular, Recent Folders, or sub-theme categories are present. Really makes you realize how much the community is losing.

There's one thing I really like about the site right now, though. NO ADS!

I know it doesn't matter much, but it's a nicer looking site without 'em.
