The screenshot server is offline at the moment while I upgrade router that box is on. I expect we should be back online within 1 hour.

thanks for your understanding

The screenshot server will be offline for 3-5 business days while a new router is provisioned.

This particular server is not in a datacenter yet, so I need to ship in replacement parts when they are not available locally. Sorry for any inconvenience, of course your old screenshots will continue to work as they are copied locally to your server, but you wont be able to generate new screenshots until we get the new router. Thanks for your patience.

Screenshots is a very expensive and much to manage service. Mark is not yet online, please stand by. Most likely he havent approved your new key also

Micheal, your Visiolist installation is extremely out of date, the screenshot system has been greatly improved in recent versions, please upgrade to 0.9 and use your original API key and your frustration will be greatly reduced :)
 
I thought that might have been the problem but upgrading will overwrite a lot of files I changed with workarounds. So I'd rather avoid that.

I also don't have the old API key now as I put in the new one.

You need to reconsider your stance on upgrading, its not safe to run out of date software... not to mention your missing out on a LOT of improvements. Furthermore you should not have modified any PHP files, that is what plugins are for ;) I will activate and email you a new API key since you didnt keep a copy the working one, check your inbox in a few minutes.
 
Thanks. I've found some notes in a textpad on the changes I made right at the start and a testing folder with the files I made a few tweaks on.

I spent a lot of time making the little changes I wanted, some of it with your help, but most by trial and error.

I skipped a few upgrades and was just waiting for something special.

Reading other people's problems with upgrading to the latest version doesn't really inspire me though.
