Thanks for the info and letting us all know

@romanogreek2003 not all of your assets (videos, photos, avatars) are held by grou.ps - some of them are kept by amazon.com's hosting service called s3. right now the issue is with the ones that are held by amazon. that should be restored soon. thanks.

Thanks for keeping us in the loop, guys. Everything seems to be working well now. A special thanks to all the Grou.ps team members. We appreciate all your hard work very much! :) Here's to a healthy and prosperous new year for everyone!!! :)

Gentlemen and ladies: I would like to ask this :: If images and video is hosted elsewhere: and many people already have such uploaded elsewhere: then could groups create a linking ability for group sites and their members?

does this have something to do with the mail settings as well , because you can not set your mail setting to prevent from getting to much mail , in your inbox . on the sites , can this please be looked into as well , thank you .
