I heard it was CP that got him into trouble, some douch uploaded cp... shame.
It has been a few days down.
Imgkk is probably dead. It's been like this since for about two days or so.
aw thats crap. It was a pretty sweet image host :sigh:

This is a good image host, and none of my pictures went down.
Still in beta also.
Hello
I am Nick, I own Burn-Blue which provides the Space, bandwidth and network connectivity to ImgKK, on Monday night somebody on the same network as us took a DDOS attack which took out all of the servers, however the Datacenter Engineers decided it would be a better idea to pull the power cable out instead of pulling the network cable.
This caused issues trashing our RAID arrays and leaving us with corrupt files, however we luckily sync every file to another server offshore to make sure everything stays safe. After we found out what had happened we put first the Backup Server which simply tells you we're having issues and then after we had more information we had to put the Backup server which has all the images.
However again our main backup server only has 15-30Mbps Upstream which isn't really much as ImgKK isn't the only site we supply Network Connectivity to at this we were maxing out the connection for quite some time.
Today our new server arrived and it's currently humming along quite nicely and we're currently smashing away at it as fast as we can to get everything back running as smooth as possible just like it did before the Tech Monkeys stupidly pulled the power cable.
We're also now looking at a better way of redundancy for when this happens and simply moving all the traffic over to the backup server and locking the upload for all the services at Burn-Blue.
For those that have used Burn-Blue in the past also might have used to Video Hosting or streamed a video from there, the servers that we use for those wern't affected as they're in another country and the DDOS attack wasn't pointed towards us.
We do apologize to all of you that have had issues uploading over the past couple of days and are looking into ways of making sure the stability is even better than it was.
However I must stress that every image that was upload before is just fine and they should now work without any issues. If you do however find any issues with either ImgKK or Burn-Blue then please do E-Mail - Staff [at] Burn-Blue.com .
Thanks
Nick

All is well now.
