Hmm, some people just don't appreciate the amount of effort that's put into these add-ons.. Can't blame him... It just buggers it up for everyone else who do appreciate the work.

Well said!

yeah I agree. There is a difference between "Constructive criticism", pointing out flaws as well as the "good points" of an addon, and those who just nit-pick ONLY the "bad points" is just downright rude and insulting. I dont blame him either.

:facepalm:

Did not mean for this to happen at all. Trying to patch things up right now.

When you upload an addon, you are open to positive or negative comments. Admittingly, I have in the past been thoughtless myself in passing a comment or two. But I have to say, they must be accepted and that is the risk every uploader must understand when they deliver an addon, good or bad.

Take it on the chin. Ignore what is out of your control and focus on what is.

I checked the link, and it works perfectly for me. Really seems like the problem is on your side. Some suggestions:

• try another browser (cache issues come to mind)
• try another internet access (maybe your ISP is blocking the range)
• contact the site-owner: IcarusAtHome AT gmail.com (note that I have this email directly from the linked site, just removed the AT sign for spam protection, even if it is not so on the linked site)

Ok Face,I tried getting on with my brothers computer,he has an entirely different ISP than I do,but I still coudn't get on,maybe i's a reigonal problem,and I have contacted the sites owner several times,so now I just don't think it's me.BTW thanks for the help.

Is your brother's computer in the same house like yours?

No, my brothers computer is down the street from me.

I see. So chances are that the packets go through the same regional routers, and something along the lines is blocking access. Happened to me once, I had lost contact to anything US from my location for some weeks. People down the street also had the same problem. The solution was to go over proxies outside town.

I suggest retrying it from time to time, maybe one of the IT guys just had a bad day and messed up some ACLs. A call to your ISP could help, too. If everything fails, take a tour to the next city's McD and use their WiFi to download what you want.

Thanks Face,maybe the true test will be when an orbiter forum member from America connects to the site successfully,then will have a better understanding of the problem.

I'm in the USA (Seattle area) and I can connect to the site just fine.
