I'm not happy  >:(

I bought a subscription but right at the end of the payment process I was timed out because it was so slow ..... I thought it had processed anyway as I received a receipt in my emails until I logged in again, tried to view an image and was told that I have to buy a subscription!!

Grrrrrrrr >:(

It's all working well for me for the last four hours. The only issue that I have encountered is that when I am browsing images a reset occurs infrequently taking me back to Image 1. It is annoying to lose my place if I am not keeping track of which image I am on.

I'm using Windows XP SP3 and Chrome as my browser. To save, I right click the image, Save Image As .., at which point I enter my chose filename followed by .jpg. Using my jpg viewer I can then zoom in, high quality.

Surely its not 25pounds for a week is it. I thought you got a month for that amount. Can someone recheck the subs for me as I cannot find them on the SEAX site pre registering.

These are the subscription charges -
1 Day (24 hours)    £5.00
   1 Week (7 days)    £15.00
   1 month (30 days)    £25.00
   6 months (182 days)    £50.00
   1 year (365 days)    £75.00
 Prices include Value Added Tax (VAT) at the current UK rate where applicable.

Copied off their website.

I've been on for hours, and found loads!  I'm delighted.

But I have found that some of the registers are a bit mixed up.  No doubt they'll sort it out.
