: As said, the server was fine all the time.  However, I have been told there

The result is the same. I could not upload though I was uploading
within the timeframe.

: It is best to understand as if there was a traffic jam somewhere on one

The point is, there was no traffic jam, more like the bridge was
out. Tough to plan for that!

I'm not trying to get anyone to make special considerations. I've
already taken the attitude that this entry is dead now. No big
deal. But please -- don't act like I didn't do sufficient planning. I
did the planning, I've been planning for two months now. My
pic was rendering all this week, planning to upload on Sunday
evening. I tried to upload for over three hours. Sheesh!
