      It looks like the site has a DNS error again, FF and Chrome are both redirecting shortcuts.
      Clearing cache etc doesn't help.
      It's possible to get around it, but it makes it difficult to use the site.
      I don't know if it is only a local server issue, perhaps limited to Germany but I thought it was worth pointing out. Some people may be unable to access the site at all at the moment, same as a few weeks ago.

        There is some server refinement ongoing at the moment which could be the cause. We will look into it though.

          I got a couple of "cannot find the server" responses on my Firefox bookmarks, so I set new ones. This happened yesterday. Today, there was a delay in loading "jroot" and paging back, buysellads.

          I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

            I checked the DNS settings and checked the DNS records and from here (Ireland) it seems to be OK. Could you please tell if the problem still exists or not and exactly what is the phenomena? If it is still exists please PM me what georgraphical location you are at and what is your ISP? It might be the problem is with the ISP's DNS server.

              After changing several PMs with Box we identified the problem that it was with the URLs containing subdomains. The subdomain system is obsolete at SketchUcation since we set up the new site. However after the switchover to the new site we set up redirects for these subdomain URLs but the usage of them is contraindicated. So a link to this topic correctly is:

              sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=53554

              not the old URL what would be:

              forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=53554

              However both works but the usage of the first is recommended as the second one is a redirected URL.

              Thank you to everybody for their contribution in this topic and the PMs.
