i have used electric sheep before, and even created my own sheep and i worked fine, i haven't used electric sheep for a while so i decided to try it again, i downloaded it, and i made 2 new sheep using apophysis then uploaded one to the server, it uploaded fine and showed the preview, but its been 24 hours and not a single frame of my sheep has been rendered, i uploaded another sheep, and none of its frames have been rendered either, its like its just sitting in the queue doing NOTHING. also my computer isnt rendering any frames either, it downloaded a few sheep by itself but didnt render anything, and it sayes "server not known yet", then when i vote on a sheep it sayes "server request failed, using free one" and then after i vote and it says that, when i press f2 it finally sayes the server address. i know the server is having problems, but are they really causing sheep to not get rendered? or is it just my sheep that dont get rendered, and my computer that doesn't render anything?

sheep not showing
I just downloaded electric sheep and when I run the program it only shows the black screen with sheep cloud image and tells me to register on site, which I already did.

Oh I see! thanks! also, do i need to use the special export script found here http://exper.3drecursions.com/2008/06/23/export-sheep-10/ ?
because one i just saved as a flame file and uploaded it, now its dead and never got rendered, the other one i exported with that script, then i uploaded, and it seems to be working fine, so im guessing i need to use that script? Also, any ideahs why my computer isnt rendering any sheep? or maybe i just haven't waited long enough?
