[Fixed] Anyone else having prob where newly nominated photos appear as broken?

Started today. Newly nominated photos appear as a broken icon/blank in the album.  If I resize the browser window from full screen to a smaller window, the photo suddenly displays properly. Size it back up, even just a little, and it goes to showing broken icon, like a missing photo on a webpage.  

Interesting, others seem to be voting on the photos nonetheless. I confirmed it's not my computer, as I've now tried multiple browsers and multiple computers, both logged in and out.

A very large number of pictures have a broken link since this afternoon. To make the list would be very boring ! A fast solution would be welcomed.

Well I for one am going to hold off on uploading or nominating new photos until this is fixed. The site is utterly broken as of the moment. Almost every photo I click on, cannot be viewed. I'm new here, and realizing that the site is partially in beta, but I hope that these kind of show-stoppers are not "regular course of business" here. I am thankful for the quick response from Damien on here, but I'd love to see this fixed soon!

Hi again.

A fix is underway, so the bug is corrected, and images are being regenerated. Images uploaded on Fotopedia yesterday and today are safe. We just have to regenerate image derivates from your original image. It may take some time.

Thank you for notifying us this bug, and for being extremely patient. We didn't immediately realized that the problem was not only affecting some images, but all new photos nominated.

You can now nominate your photo and they should be displayed correctly.
