I noticed my FCS models started failing, but it's because previously the model unit has always defaulted to meters (even when I picked millimeters). Now, I have to specify millimeters... which is good b/c I can stop designing using the meter scale, which is annoying as most my models are around 5-6cm. Not sure if you are experiencing the same issue, but that's so far the only thing I've noticed.

I'm consistently getting this error with full colour models
It seems your product is missing the textures it needs to be 3D printed. Please check the uploaded file to make sure the texture is in the root directory (we don't support textures in subfolders).
Have no idea if that's related and Service is looking into it for me.

I just tried a colour test upload that I know works.
No thanks for uploading a model email, but I did get. there's a problem with your model email.
The best bit - the model uploaded fine and is in 'My Models' with the right size and the colour it is supposed to have.
Hey Ho.

Nothing specific, just.
"Uh oh! Seems like your model needs a bit more love before our robots can work their magic.
The 3D model 10mmcube-red-cross you recently uploaded didn't pass all our automated checks, so it's not yet ready for 3D printing."

I guess this happens when the shapeways server is so overloaded that the process
that generates the preview image and video reaches its time limit just as it is almost
done processing the model.
(Now as NimlothCQ claims in the Announcement forum, the redesigned Upload page
is supposed to have led to a dramatic increase in model uploads during the few hours
that it has been live... still undecided if I should lose my faith in humanity)

Well, I finally got so sick and tired of reviewing my workflow, uploading, getting the previous mentioned error, re-doing and re-uploading over the last few days that I finally uploaded a file to one of Shapeways' competitors and got a clean upload with full colour. That settled it for me and now I know there is a problem here...

Seems to be fixed now - both your "red cross cube" and one of my own wrl files were processed
correctly (and reasonably fast) including the expected "being processed" and "is now ready" mails.

Yep, this does seem to be fixed now.
Even huge files (930k stl binaries ~45MB) are going through fine with all the right emails too

Just tried again. Still not working for me. Another file I uploaded fine to a competitor but not to SW. I got this email from Service this morning:
"Dev is looking into this.
It seems that there is something going on with the ZIP files and their unit conversion."
