I've been having a difficult time getting on the board as well.
Over the course of the last week I have received two new passwords, but activating those passwords by clicking on the e-mail link only took me to a red bordered box listing several reasons that might prevent me from logging on. Trying to log on by going through the OP website didn't work either (note that this uses the www2, so was not just an issue of using an old bookmark.)
Finally, I got one of the passwords to work and posted my fox shots. Then it too, failed.
Frustrated, I sent a message back to OP and got this message in reply (actually in just a few minutes):
-----------------------------
Gordon, I'm passing this on to our Web Programmer. We've been having some sporadic glitches, as we recently moved our website to a new server.
I won't be in tmmw, but hopefully it will be worked out.
One trick that MIGHT work, is to try sticking a 2 after the www, whenever you get an error message, and clicking enter.
So sorry for the inconvenience.
Tom

Please note that the suggestion of typing in "www2" did not work for me. It's just working on its own again.
Just sounds like they are having troubles migrating to the new server, plus maybe some complicating factors thrown in to boot.
To their credit, however, the quick response was welcome and appreciated. Implies that they really are concerned. As a result, despite the problems, I really am pleased with the response.
