Problems with paint4models?
Posted by mrmike on Wednesday, April 2, 2014 9:01 PM

Is anyone else having trouble launching the Conversion Chart? It downloads the entire file (all 300+ pages) OK, but the interactive chart stops about halfway thru. It's been this way for a few weeks - are there problems with the site, or is it me?

Just tried it and had the same thing happen. Appears to be the site.

Have you guys tried downloading the chart. I find it easier than going back to the site when I need it.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

just remember to check all three sheens if you use the pages as a download. They do use the "IPMS Rule" for the FS colors, but, then they separate them anyway.

whenever you get the online page working again, you can type in the "last four" of an FS in your search, and it will show all three sheens in the results.

the site goes in streaks, sometimes it loads fast, sometimes it takes a while and only loads after a refresh attempt when it stalls,,,,,,,,,,and sometimes it is like this where it doesn't load no matter how long you wait

but, every time it has gotten like this since I first saw it,,,,,,,it got back to working again later on

one thing that sometimes worked was to do a fresh search for it on Google, click it from the results page, and go from there (no guarantee, though) (it didn't load again, just now)

Tried refreshing before and it never helped. Tried it again just now and bingo, worked like a charm. Ah, the vagaries of teh interwebs...
