Hello everybody,
Have you sent a message to Lookbook through the FEEDBACK option at your Account options?
I did it but I think that everybody who is experiencing these problems should do it in order to let them know the real scope of the problem.

Agreed! I've also been noticing all these problems all around my favourite lookbookers- its a real shocker really- like even for myself. Sometimes I have to go on a hunt just to find new looks from people ive fanned because they don't show up on my home page. ;/ ugh and the notifications! constantly delayed, and usually come 1/2 day after.. i remember 6 months ago lookbook was in its best shape! please guys fix it up :'(

I've fanned around 30 people in the last couple of days & I've noticed that my home page hasn't updated as often as it did before. I'm sure it will get fixed soon!

I am experiencing the same problems. I have been for months. The strict filter shows looks of people with very little fans and karma. I don't even make it on the strict filter or lite filter most of the time. I don't see any of the people I fanned either. I just see old looks. I thought maybe the site is just slow but it can't be compared to last year.

Yeah I'd agree that there seems to be some problem with the feeds coming through. It took ages for my latest look to get hypes and it seemed like my fans were not getting the update on their home page. Oh well. =/ Maybe we can rely on pigeon mail again - send out a pigeon to our friends when we've posted a new look? That would be so romantic. :)

Oh yes! me too! I used to receive over 200 Hypes, but now I'm going down to under 20... Is something up with lookbook? Or is the actual "hype" and fondness of lookbook dying? I wish they kept it invite only. Now all you see is regular Wet Seal clothes up on here.

I've noticed this too... I'm new here, but whenever I look at people's older looks, it seems like they've been doing well under their average karma. Is Lookbook's popularity decreasing?

I'm really hoping it actually is the website, and not people losing interest or something...my last look hasn't even reached 50 hypes :(

Well, I can help you get 50, but I can't promise more than that. I do like your look, so I will post it to my tumblr for you. I think for some reason lookbook is losing traffic from the smaller lookbookers that make up a majority of people's fans. :/

Ahh, not at all, I just understand the feeling, and I am always open to hyping people who's looks I think deserve attention. :]

I think Lookbook might be over. It is so slow. Maybe it is like myspace.

I really don't get it. I'm not even on the light page at the moment! The rules say that users who gain fans and earn karma from more experienced, reputable members will be rewarded with greater exposure on the "New" page.
I have fans like Bobby Raffin, Jerome Centeno and Karl Philip Leuterio. I've been hyped by Ebba Zingmark, Petra Karlsson, Edward Honaker and many more.
I have an avarage of 168 hypes over 7000 in Karma and over 600 fans.
WHY AM I NOT ON THE STRICT PAGE!!??

Hey all, just wanted to address some of these issues. About a month ago our background jobs, that are responsible for sending out emails and notifications, were failing. Everything should be fixed now, but are any of you still experiencing problems with notifications?
Feel free to email me directly at yuri@lookbook.nu with any questions/concerns, I'm always happy to help!

Hi Mary! Has the site been slow in general, or is it something specific? We made changes since 2 weeks ago and we're just wondering if you're experiencing the same problems?

Hi Yuri! It's not that the site is slow, it is pretty slow, but that's not the main problem. The main problem is that I'm not receiving notifications from the people I've fanned about their new looks, also when I visit their profiles a lot of my hypes, that I've given them seem to have disappeared in thin air! -_-

The low traffic these days are due to it being an election year (at least here in the U.S.) and it being 2012! It'll pick back up in 2013, hopefully.

@Liliana I emailed Yuri a while ago but my account is still messed up. I don't post that much anymore because of it. The same thing is happening to me. I don't appear in the filter and hardly get any hypes anymore.

@Ivam K., yea I noticed your looks don't even appear anymore and others who had such high hyped looks are really low by the end of the day.
