Anyone else having trouble with DeviantArt?

I've found I havn't been able to access DeviantArt for the past few days. First it was just my profile, now I can't access other people's profiles or even anything on the site anymore.

However I can access the site on my phone just fine (the mobile version at least). I havn't tried with any of my other net-enabled devices yet (Wii, PS3), but to use it from my Laptop would be preferable.

    Are you sure you weren't banned?

    Really? I just tried my account now and it is fine! Maybe it is just a glitch or something? Why don't you try to clear your cookies first and then try to log on again.

    I haven't been able to get on it either for about the past 4 days.

    I just tried it with my Wii and PS3, and neither can access it.

    I've done a little poking around and found that a lot of people having difficulty accessing it are those using Shaw Cable in Canada. Anyone else that can vouch for that pattern?

    I'm also on Shaw and have not been able to access Deviant art in a couple of days. Is there anyone out there with access who can find out more of what's going on?

    Non-Shaw user from the UK here. I can access DeviantArt fine, and an attempt at googling for issues with Shaw and DA didn't yield any answers. I did get the impression that Shaw is a shitty service, though.

    I'm on Shaw and it loads fine for me, I don't go there regularly though so not sure if I had problems previously.

    Shawn's DNS in some regions seem to have fucked entries or no entries for deviant art. I walked my cousin through changing her DNS entries to the Google Public DNS, which I'd recommend for anyone else having this issue.
