It seems you have 655 DA artworks in your gallery. This will take a long time to go through. I would recommend opening the import in a separate tab and simply leaving it on until it's done. Unfortunatly this is the best we can do with the current importer. We are working on a new one but it won't be ready for a few weeks.

does that mean when the import thingy disappears, its importing them. if so, i keep turning it off

Mine just says the login was unsuccessful. O.o I have over 300 pics in my dA gallery so I would understand if it was taking a while to upload but it just said it couldn't login. I definitely typed the username and password right... *shrug* I'll just have to wait til it works.

I only have about 50 pieces on dA, but it sais 'try again'. What could be the problem?

exactly. It doesn't work. I tried 10 times in 2 hours and it keeps saying my login was wrong. Funny Devient Art doesn't say my login is wrong

It does work for a lot of people but there's problems for a few. We are working on a brand new importer written in a completely different programming language that will work better. For now I can recommend that you try it again when we release the new one. Sorry for the inconvenience. We are doing the best we can.

same problem

Jup.
Same here.
I'll try it again later though.

Please try it now

Ive tried about 20x. It just goes blank. Does this mean it's still importing?

I was really excited to see that importer as most of my illustration work is on DA...I left the importer in a seperate tab and surfed around a bit and when I clicked to see if it was done I didn't see weather it was successful or not,so I tried again,is this a problem? I don't want the pics to appear doble or something...I have about 450 pics in my gallery

I left mine all day and it's still blank.

I am having the same problems with the current importer as well. I have tried it on Opera, Firefox, and W.E. Not only that, but for some reason, after I enter all of my profile information, and save it, it only remains for a short while then deletes itself making me re-enter everything all over again. I think that a lot of the features on this site are great concepts, but I think that I'll have to try using it again in a few months.

I too have been trying most of today but I am told repeatedly to try logging in again.

hmm Seems to be hanging when I try importing been like this for hours now, I am using Safari 4 Beta.

I've tried IE and Firefox 3, and get the 'try to login again' message every time. I have 174 deviations in my gallery, but I don't think it's getting to my gallery -- the issue seems to be communicating with dA itself.

I just restarted the import daemon. Please try it. We're working on a brand new one redone from scratch.
