Site update: There was a large power outage in our server cluster. Although only 0.5% of servers were affected, our main web server + associated backup volumes were destroyed.
Thankfully, all text content was saved in another server, so all reviews, ratings, comments, etc. are fully preserved. We did, however, lose images uploaded to the site over the last 1.5 years. Scraping scripts are hard at work trying to recover most of the album art. However, some album art will be non-recoverable and will need to be re-uploaded by users.
Please accept my apologies for the downtime and for the lost images. In the event of a large hardware failure like this, there is unfortunately nothing that could have prevented data loss other than locally archiving copies of uploaded images. That will be done in the future to prevent any future outages.
Thanks for your patience, and please let us know in the forums if any new bugs beyond missing images have popped up.

Also just noticed it, but I like the change to the »Edit My "Uploaded" Reviews/Albums. Simple, yet effective.

Are these images very large in file size and/or px? Rarely does a 1200px image go through.
And are these images .jpg?

@Uzumaki refresh the image cache in your browser, it should be uploaded now. Still needs to be approved before it shows up on the bandpage, but the album page (https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=322078) should have the picture after the refresh.
