S3 outage today

Hi all, just a heads up — Amazon S3, which provides our image hosting service, is currently having a major outage. This affects Lightstalkers images, along with scads of other major Web sites; we’re just waiting for them to resolve this and hope it happens soon.

In general, S3 is very reliable, so this isn’t cause for concern (yet). If you’re anxious, you can track their status here:
