Hi, friends! Sorry for the trouble π
++ In short: Old outfit image URLs are expiring, but you can get the + updated URL right here! +
+TODO: Outfit image URL converter goes here
+
+ When we started hosting outfit images back in 2012, we didn't know a
+ lot about web infrastructure, and we weren't thinking a lot about
+ permanent URLs π
We uploaded images directly to{" "}
+ Amazon S3, and gave you
+ Amazon's URL for them, at amazonaws.com
.
+
+ Since then, we've grown a lot, and our Amazon costs have increased a + lot too! These days, it costs about $30/month to serve outfit images + from S3βand $20 of that is just to store our millions of + outfit images, including the ones nobody visits π +
+
+ So, we've moved our apps to a new, more cost-efficient way to share
+ outfit images! But, until we delete the old images from Amazon S3
+ altogether, we're still paying $20/month just to support
+ the old amazonaws.com
URLs.
+
+ I looked hard for a way to redirect the old Amazon URLs to our new + service, but it seems to not be possible, and it seems like + $20/month could be better spent another way π +
++ I'm truly sorry for breaking some of the lookups and petpages out + there, and I hope this tool helps folks migrate to the new version + quickly and easily! π +
