The actual error I'm getting is:

"The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved."

I just tried again and got the same error.

EDIT (I think): Also sometimes getting this error message on a white screen: User 'smp18B8STha' has exceeded the 'max_questions' resource (current value: 300000)

I'm on the case, will try and get this resolved shortly!

I'm getting this. Don't know what it should be, I am hoping Stu does
The default theme's directory is wrong, please correct it

I'm getting a similar issue it seems, but I have/had one of the alternate themes selected, which is also giving me issues.

OK, this should be working fine for everyone now, please let me know if anyone encounters any further errors or issues!

Similarly their may be a few new bugs and errors on the main site.

Any found gratefully received. Updates will be different from today, they will gradually appear as I change pages, instead of one bulk update overnight, so this may cause a few temporary broken links while being updated, so please give any of those until the next day first.

Thanks

That's now fixed, attachments and avatars should be visible again now.

Yep, avatars are visible again for me. Thanks for getting it sorted.

It was still there, but for some reason wasn't visible to guests, only for logged-in members.

It's back now

Yes, I've been getting this too since yesterday. As the forum doesn't appear to be being overloaded, I'm guessing that @Tony 's webhost is having problems with their database server?
