I just keep getting errors all day long. Sometimes it opens it, sometimes not.

I think the site was only scheduled to go live today. Probably snowed under because of the BBC story.

I'd say 7, perhaps 7 and a half?

mine are mostly low quality elliptical ones.

Same, unfortunately.

I had a run of those. Eventually got some prettier/more interesting shots.

Actually I thought all galaxies were spiral but from this it seems the majority are not.
