Fotopic returns for Existing Users - kuyoyo - 07/10/2012 15:12
http://fotopic.net/
"Dear Fotopic Users
It’s official!
We are working on allowing access to Fotopic.net for former users to download their pictures.
Snappy Designs Ltd, the company running Fotopic.net, went into liquidation in 2011. The assets of the company were bought by a private buyer in the hope of resuscitating Fotopic and integrating it into their photo portal.
Subsequently this was found to be too costly an operation to set up and run. We reluctantly abandoned our plans but were aware that users still had photographs on the site of which they had no copies.
For technical reasons it has taken us a while to get Fotopic operational again. We have only opened up Fotopic to allow existing users to view and download their pictures. Once this process is completed the site will be shut down again. So if you have images you want to retrieve please download them as soon as you are given access.
We are providing access on a rolling basis alphabetically on a trial basis, to make sure that our servers can cope with the anticipated load. Initially only users with usernames beginning with “0″ to “9″ or the letter “a” will be given access. Notification will be via email. If all goes well we will soon roll out access to more users.
The Fotopic Legacy Team"

Can anyone remind me the way the usernames worked - was it just the first part before .fotopic.net or was it an email address?

I've found my old login email (I hadn't deleted it) and it was my full email address.
That said, I've tried that and it doesn't work however in my case I've a suspicion my account was closed well before the end as I didn't really use it anyway!

Thanks Steve, they are going in alphabetical order so maybe that's why it didn't work? I'm gonna have to wait for S and they're only on B so far!
RE: Fotopic returns for Existing Users - buses7675 - 10/10/2012 13:36
The odd thing is it was up to T the other day! Not quite sure how they are back to B again now!
RE: Fotopic returns for Existing Users - Jack - 10/10/2012 13:41
I think it started on T so there must have been an error because apparently downloads weren't working, but now they've gone to the correct alphabetical order.
RE: Fotopic returns for Existing Users - buses7675 - 10/10/2012 13:45
Ah I see, thanks for that! I'll try again in a bit in case they weren't at the end of B yet as my one, buses7675@.... will be towards the end!

I'd forgot about the 341 account! And they won't work again unfortunately, the sites aren't being brought back, fotopic are just enabling existing users to retrieve photos from the database before fotopic closes down for good.
