Hey @whitewolfpuppy!
Are you using any symbols or accents in your status? YWS really doesn't like them being used on your wall...

Wolf, thank you for including all that info

As Auxiira noted, there is probably some character in the status message that YWS doesn't like. However, I am working on a fix that should be forthcoming within the next couple days.

@Auxiira Oh I was using an accent in my status. I totally forgot all about that! >.< Thank you for the reminder!

@Nate I'm not sure if this is a bug or a server issues, but WFP is down and has been down the for three days now. Today's the third day. I'm using Safari on my boyfriend's mac, and I'm not sure if it's my internet or not, either. Safari keeps tell me it can't open the page because the server unexpectedly dropped out or something along those lines. Plus, it loads only a bit and then sits there for ages before suddenly clicking over to "Failed to open page".

Thought I might let you know.

^ It's down for me too. iPad, Safari/Chrome. I also know it's down for some people on their PCs, so it looks like it's not our computers' fault...

On it!

@AriaAdams, that's good to know. Sort of.

@Nate you're awesome!

WriterFeedPad is back up again. Sorry for the downtime.

Thanks so much, @Nate. Now I can work on my novel and profiles for my SB! You're the best!

Speaking of site bugs... I'm curious, is the no stars without an avatar something that was done on purpose?

Glad to help @ScarlettFire

@Holysocks, no stars for no avatar isn't really a bug, but it's not really something that was deliberate either. It's just the way that the code for avatars is currently written; adding in the stars for no avatar would require quite a few more lines of code, and it's just not something that's ever been important.

Iggy wrote:Nate, sorry to bug you again, but it seems people aren't earning their stars? It's five reviews to earn your first star, right? So unless it changed, and I'm certain it hasn't, then people haven't been earning them. For instance, wordsmakemovements and joshua3322 have both made eight reviews and have no stars. Can you please take a look and fix it, or let me know if I'm wrong?

That answers this question, then. You learn something new about YWS every day.

Hmm... that makes sense. I thought maybe it was a grand plot to encourage users to get their own avatars! XP

I can't add pictures to my clubs. That is, when I try to upload an avatar or banner, it doesn't give me any sort of error or anything, it acts as if everything is right, but then the avatar/banner just doesn't show.
This is only happening on iPad, but it still sucks 'cause I can't do it on a computer now <.<
I tried different sizes. I also tried to upload the pics (which I doodled on iPad) elsewhere and then save them again and upload them here, and it still won't work :/
