Ebay listings screwing up photos

Options
Just went to list a couple of items now the weekend offer is open. Noticed loads of pics missing on my current live listings list, also when I look at someone else's item for sale there's maybe 2 or 3 pics visible out of 12 listed, the others either have a couple of 'picture frames' in a blank background, or just show text copied from the item title. Is this affecting anyone else? (i.e. is it me or them?)

    I only noticed this when I went to edit a listing , I had about 2 ‘picture frame’ blank photos and 10 normal ones. However when I relisted I could see all 12 again.

    There definitely looks like an issue with photos .

    I think they noticed it quickly and fixed it overnight; it was OK first thing Friday morning.
    I wonder if it was a server overload issue, as the 80% off FVF started at midnight.
    Do lots of people sit up like me, waiting for the clock to tick over to do some listings?

    I've seen this a few times when I've added lots of photos, they all don't immediately show up. After half a few minutes they usually sort themselves out. 

    Same thing sometimes happens when you re-order photos. The new order doesn't always show straight away when you view the page.
