Seeing the dreaded 'File Read-Only Mode' message on Fur Affinity? Don't panic! It usually means the site is undergoing maintenance or experiencing temporary technical issues. Think of it like a library putting its books behind glass while they reorganize the shelves.
What does this actually mean? You won't be able to upload, edit, or post new content during this period. You *can*, however, typically still browse and view existing submissions. This is why it's called 'read-only'.
So, what can you do? Unfortunately, not much besides waiting. Refresh the page periodically. Check Fur Affinity's official Twitter or news feed for updates about the maintenance schedule or the cause of the issue. Patience is key! While you wait, why not browse your favorite artists' galleries or catch up on comments? The read-only mode is usually temporary, and things will be back to normal before you know it. Happy browsing (and creating later)!
