"unknown size"

We're investigating this, until that is sorted out all processing of model uploads is postponed.

Sorry for any inconvenience,

Not testing results:
*unhappy customers
*loss in sales because people can't do what they need
*reduced security - if you are not testing you open your self up to all kinds of attacks that can take advantage of the broken code
*loss of trust - how can I trust shapeways to keep my private stuff safe, actually pay me for sales made, ect when tomorow they could upload a bunch of new code that allows everyone to download my model stl files, add a bug that stops recording sales, shows people my printing costs/markup
*litigation - some bugs like not showing units of measurmnet properly, showing one price then changing once added to cart, ect could cause shapeways to get sued.

And I am sure there are many more I can't think of. If things keep going the way they have over the last month the shapeways programers are going to kill shapeways. Safe guards against these mistakes must be put in place NOW and failure to fallow these safe guards should mean termination.]]> mctrivia 2011-10-13T12:42:04-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=36583&th=6708#msg_36583
- I turned my shop to "for show only" , no item is for sale

I'll return to the game when i feel the plain-field is FAIR and i'm wanted as a designer around here with no sales bugs of any kind.. or.. not.


But here is to you Don Quichotte!

Dizingof, why do you feel the playing-field is not fair? I'm just curious.

I have just uploaded a model and it has gone through without any issues. Might be worth giving one of your uploads another shot.


Should mention that my model has a low triangle count.]]> Kasss_Gnarl 2011-10-23T20:22:32-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=37294&th=6708#msg_37294
there were indeed some problems with large model uploads due to heavy load on the server. (since Friday afternoon) The database connection timed out for long calculations, which resulted in failed uploads and no email response.

The problem should have been fixed last night.

Can you give me details on which browser you were using, and what time of day this happened?

Thanks!

Here is ANOTHER live example how shapeways is skimming my earning - again, call it a "bug" call it whatever you want ... this seems to happen only on my account !!!

goto : http://www.shapeways.com/gifts/

click on my Dymaxion World Map model , add it to your cart - you will see the cost to print as the price WITHOUT my markup !!

see my reply to Pete the ceo of shapeways :
http://www.shapeways.com/blog/archives/1098-American-Censors hip-Day.html

And lets not forget how shapeways skimmed hundreds of dollars from my logged markups for each of the last 3 pay periods of 2010

Over $1200 disappeared from my account !
http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=msg&&th=5 616&goto=32646#msg_32646

Only after i made threats Bart took care of it and money was paid to me !

But then countless "sales errors" continued happening on my account - its all in the forum !


Enough is Enough !!

I've realized that there's a problem here and I'm in the middle of collecting info so that my team can handle this, once and for all. I'm trying to pinpoint what's going on, and we have no desire to get in the way of your earnings. One of Shapeways primary goals is to create new income streams for independent creatives!

I'd really appreciate if you could weigh in here. It'll help me in the process of getting these issues fixed. Sorry for the trouble.

Best,
