As you know here at Fotolia we are forever growing in fact we have just eclipsed the 500,000 member plateau!! We strive to guarantee that we are always improving our site and its functions and no matter how many members we have they all enjoy that same quick and easy service provided.
To that standard we are constantly upgrading our site and its functions and tonight we will be adding a new server to our database,in response to the growing number of members and traffic on the site.This will help to significantly reduce the time needed to find images as well as increase the accuracy of the searches. To perform this upgrade we will have to take all servers offline for a short period of time starting tonight December 5th at 9:00pm. So if you have some images to buy better plan ahead and do it today. Likewise if you have images you wish to upload today, mind the time.The blog will remain accessible through the night for those of you who need your fix. The site and all its functions old and new will be back online tomorrow morning the 6th of December at 8:00am.
We apologise for any inconvenience but growth means change and change requires time.

V2 is now deployed. It has been the worse day of our lives. We have been working very hard for the last 4 days as the new main database server had a material default and we had to replace it on emergency during the migration.
