FYI. Just got off the phone with tech support. Their server (I think that's what he said) is down. Jonathan told me to try later today. I wished him luck and he said they were going to need it.

I was trying to submit a show this morning and having no luck (I am on Pampered Partner, not P3 though I don't know if it will make a difference.
 
NOt that I have a show to submit but that is good to know - thanks for sharing Jeanine!!
 
Thanks for letting us know.
 
Yeah, I'm sure they have limited resources still handling PP and it is older technology. Why upgrade that equipment.Give them a few hours (depending on their issues) and they'll have it growing. We have a good tech department at HO, they'll work hard to solve it.
 
Don't forget that HO is also going through a change with solution center systems. They are upgrading to a new SAP system and there are some changes happening there we will have to be patient with.
