Photo uploading issues

Is anyone else having issues when they try to upload photos to blogs/reviews? I keep getting a message saying upload failed, and I've tried from my computer and my phone (and also tried the "turn it off and turn it on again" approach!) Thanks for any insight!

    @TonetoEdo Thank you! I wanted to make sure it wasn't an internet issue on my side of things, but it seems like the whole site must be having issues. I don't think it'll be fixed on the weekend but hopefully next week they'll see this!

    @genkidesu I was able to upload a photo for a blog post, however. Here's hoping the review photo issue gets noticed by the admin on Monday.

Christmas - shopping, meals, etc. - how are we faring?

I saw a press release this morning from FamilyMart, which promoted their festive season eats but also covered a survey about spending. The survey mentioned most people planning to celebrate Christmas at home aim to spend less than 5,000 yen on food. How does your budget look in comparison to that? Do you go all out for Christmas here if it was something you celebrated in your home country, or is it a quieter celebration owing to it not being an official holiday here? How about Christmas shopping? Have you got strict budgets in place, and have you completed your shopping or are you still looking for bits and pieces for people?

Favorite Pocky/Pretz flavor?

November 11th is Pocky/Pretz day, with the date (11/11) meant to resemble the popular snack icons. Do you have a favorite flavor of Pocky or Pretz? Are you a fan of the traditional flavors (e.g. chocolate or strawberry Pocky) or have any limited-time/special flavors taken your fancy?
