Sorry that the site is down.
It is paid up but the host seems to be having the same problem.
Hopefully it can be fixed soon!

Sorry guys,

This is due to some planned maintenance. I've no idea why it's saying that it's suspended, that is simply wrong.

They estimate that it should be back up within 3 hours.

I believe that it is to upgrade the site to handle the newest team. The Monofilm Mulisha

Sean,
Hope you didn't google google - everyone knows that'll break the internet.

Bummer. I'll have a look at this tonight.

These problems are definitely related to the move to a new server, I've got another site on there that's borked as well.

Yay for server administrators who don't get it right

Where Sue? I've checked, and the distance is in the rankings, the post window, and the personal distance travelled next to the avatar. I haven't sailed so I haven't actually tried posting a distance, but the space is there to do it.

On my computer the tables run off the page so I can't read all the comments and there isn't any distance column??

It is because the images are too large.
The information is there but you need to go to the bottom of the page and use the scroll bar to see the rest of the data.
After you have clicked upload make sure that the image dimensions are not wider than 700 before you click Insert.

I think it is unreasonable to expect that users are able or disciplined enough to resize their photos before uploading. To me it looks like lacking of some coding work to take care of the formatting. Looks like the table extends beyond the graphic borders.... I remember long time ago I had a function that would resize photos after uploading, before showing it on the website....if your site uses php I can send it to you.

strictly speaking, it only needs this added to the stylesheet:

.results_table img { max-width: 780px; max-height: 580px; }

or thereabouts.

Even if I use the scroll bar I still can't see all the data

Yeah sorry about that guys.

It's to do with the new server (which I didn't ask to be moved to), and the new server doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the old one.

I'll get onto it this weekend.

Thanks heaps!

Ben, I just had a new team member try to register but his details wouldn't save. Perhaps that needs looking into also. Thanks.

Images should be sorted out now.

Thanks Mathew for the idea on reining in images that were posted before I sorted out the image resize on upload issue.

I've just resized Sam's SA pics on his post yesterday. It's very easy, just click in the image and you can then drag the corners in. But I didn't need to go all the way to 700, I think I ended up closer to 800.
So you can do your own post or the captain can do it for any team member.
