I have noticed this recently, but figured it might be due to the
overload with GalCiv2. But even tonight updating new skins says
"connection timeout" , but updated skins work.

So I wasn't sure if there was a problem in that area or a fix for me. I
am unable to view new skins in SDC at the moment because of this.

Thanks

This is likely to be because WinCustomize has been temporarily disabled
due to overwhelming interest in Stardock latest game, Galactic
Civilizations 2 (including various news posts on slashdot, digg, the
register, etc . . .

We have bought a new mega-server using a part of the proceeds, which
will be used to make all of the sites (including WinCustomize) a lot
faster, but I'm afraid for the next couple of days, access is going to
be a little patchy.

I thought that could be the case, but then I should think it would be
affecting Updated skins as well not downloading in the Skin Updates Manager.

Well new skins is working again after SDC update, though that may be a
coincidence. Odd though I couldn't access wincustomize.com at this time
lol.
