Hey everyone,

The last week Curse.com have had several issues with anything from image uploading to images not displaying and video uploading, problems with downloading files and several other problems including issues with news not displaying correctly and also videos sometimes not streaming.

Our developers have been actively working on fixing all the problems with the site since they were first discovered and they feel that most problems have been resolved.

Summary:

Image uploading should now work correctly
Media uploading should now work correctly
Viewing images when logged out now works
Downloading files should work a lot better now, no really, it does!
You should be able to download files via the Curse Client
If you previously experienced problems with streaming videos -- it should now work
Video uploading should now work correctly (for real this time)

If you discover anything that still might be broken or not function as intended, please let us know.
