#5 by usagi 2010-05-23 at 16:12 | < report >Ok, I tried to go to vndb.org through anonymizer.ru (virtual proxy site) and it works perfect too. I think somehow it connected to my ip adress.. now I have this picture (even skins aren't loaded): linkLast modified on 2010-05-23 at 16:18 |
#6 by yorhel 2010-05-23 at 19:04 | < report >I recently switched s.vndb.org (the hostname for all static files for the site, including the skins and screenshots) to another server. Looks you're having trouble connecting to that server. :-( As an ugly solution, you can add the following line to your hosts file: 194.50.163.173 s.vndb.orgA browser restart or complete reboot may be necessary. Not sure. |

#8 by kelpie 2010-05-23 at 23:38 | < report >Because (not to put words in yorhel's mouth) if the server is changed again, that line will prevent you from getting the updated IP like everyone else: you'll have to either remove it and rely on your DNS server, or change it manually. |
#9 by yorhel 2010-05-24 at 08:32 | < report >What kelpie said. Although I don't intent to change the server anytime soon, so you should be safe for a while. However, if, in the far future, VNDB suddenly stops working for you and you still have that line, try removing it. |
