I don't know what Cory was going to offer, but I thought of offering to upload for someone. That would require their sending me the image and their user name and password. I've done that at another site for friends - but it does require that you be friends or at least trust the other person.

Sorry for my delayed response, David. I don't spend much time at DPC anymore.
I should have explained the items I posted. The first set of numbers 78.158.93.74 is the ip address of //www.dpchallenge.com/ For nearly every web server, the IP address is invisibly translated into a natural English "domain name" for ease of use. But technically speaking, the IP address is the true identifier of a web serverâ€Â¦the domain name is simply a redirector pointer to help people find the web server. So, when there are disruptions of our ability to connect with DPC's web server, it is sometimes more expedient to use the ip address.

Google DNS addresses and the OpenDNS addresses are my recommendations for replacing the directory system provided by your local ISP. Again when there is a disruption of the our ability to connect to the DPC server, it will eventually be restored, but the speed at which directories repopulate varies.

There are many members at DPC who know a lot more than I do. I'm just trying to provide some easy things to try while waiting for the situation to resolve.
