Squidge Images – User Signups Temporarily Disabled
Please note that due to an influx of bad agents, signups for Squidge Images are temporarily disabled. Yeah, I wish we didn’t have to do it, either. But because of people not in fandom who are trying to use anonymous hosting for non-fandom things like rape/snuff images and for-sale/commercial listings, we’ve shut down signups. The only […]

Image hosting from Squidge.org is here for fandom. If you’re using it for fandom, then you’re in the right place and have nothing to worry about.

As an FYI, we had a bit of a blup this morning which caused all Squidge.org services to be down for a short while (less than a minute). However, SquidgeWorld Archive did not come back immediately, so we had to perform a hard reset. The server should be back up withing about 20 minutes. If […]
Read MoreSquidge Support – Email Issue
Though it was unknown to us until now, email support tickets were being delivered to our Helpdesk system Freescout, and we were acting on them. However, due to an internal configuration issue (that was hidden to us until this morning) emails were not going OUT. So if you get an email about a ticket that […]
Read MoreSquidgeWorld Downtime
After normal maintenance this morning, SquidgeWorld did not come back up. It’s a problem not with the archive, but with the underlying configuration of the webserver. I think the issue is resolved, and the Archive is slowly coming back. We’ll know soon if we have to bring the archive down again. Hopefully it was just […]

Read MoreBack up!
We are finally back up! There was a car accident that took out power at almost 8am Pacific to 1,800 residents and businesses – including us. But after a long, arduous day (it must have been a horrid accident!), we came back at about 4:30pm Pacific. Everything but SquidgeWorld Archive is up at the moment, […]

We lost power for about 2 hours (11:15am Pacific to 1:15pm Pacific) due to a localized traffic accident. We’re good now, but had 2 hours where the systems were up, but the network connectivity went down due to power issues. Everything is back up now.
