It WILL be available to ALL team members when the servers are upgraded.  It's still in the "testing" phase and therefore has limited access because the old server cannot handle the full load of all the members accessing it.





Dislaimer:  I'm NOT staff, just repeating what they have made abundantly clear.  There's no intent to deprive anyone of anything, or to screw or trick anybody.

edit: in after the the wood shoed one.

GB is currently testing the new archive server and has only opened it up for Gold and above to limit the hit on the server while he irons out the bugs.

Sooner or later all paying members will have access.




I'd rather have a stable photo server.

It is in Testing.  About 66% of Team are Bronze level.  Software is on same machine as photo server, and we know how that machine works.   Once bugs are fixed, the entire archive will be put on the live server and linked.   Right now it only has a limited library of things to search, anyway.

Chill out man, GoatBoy is allowing people with Gold or higher accounts to access it for TESTING, because if EVERYONE was on it BEFORE the UPGRADE, it would DIE.

Then you wouldn't be able to use it at all.
