I picked the random/free option sometime yesterday night, so I don't know if I have an old or new strain or what. Healer says I'm infected, but there's no preview of my HA there at all, just a blank space:

Is this what it's supposed to look like or should something be showing up? I haven't noticed any changes looking at the base of my HA in my wardrobe either.
[edit] Looks like I'm in the early stages of the "Blistering Hearts" infection (which is SUPER AWESOME because I love the look of that one), I just couldn't see it because it was under my wig.
Still, odd that nothing is showing up in the Healer preview. Is anyone else having this issue?
Well, it's definitely starting to show, but it looks as though I might have two strains at once...?
Enamoured is the blood, but Exuberant is the plant sprout, from what I can tell. Not sure how I'm able to be developing both.
I picked the no wait option last night and I still can't find any sign of a virus on my HA in the sidebar, preview or wardrobe. It seems like most others have gotten their's started. I'm worried mine is glitching up.
You're in stage 2...it's the flower at your feet (I can see it, at least).
I also have two strains I think. If you're going to fix it please do it now before I get too attached to them LOL.
That flower in the left hand corner by your feet is the start of yours. :)
Thank joss, another person with a dual infection. I feel better now. xD
Thanks for responding. I actually still can't see that flower at all in any version of my HA (preview/sidebar/wardrobe). I think it's cause my HA refuses to update on my end without the background I initially put on it. Glad to know it's there.
It looks like some people may have two infections at once...? I think this happened another year I was on here, but I don't remember when. Thank you for updating us though! Really appreciate it :)
Laughed right out loud at that. You know, that could be it.
the stages don't show up in the actual wardrobe.
use the preview link here but change the numbers to your user id :)
I had it on sunday and monday, yet still only one virus :C
Oh cool thanks. Everyone was mentioning a preview link but I was confused by what they meant.
So those who waited until now because of the bug (even though it said 2:45 hours) will not get a little speed for their progress? because it's 12 hours that we lost, we were supposed to be stage 2 by now.. :( I was planning to do my 4 viruses plan, like i did last year, but now it seems like it's going to be impossible..
I was just infected but I'm already stage two. Seems like we got fast tracked over stage one because of the glitch.
Amber I paid the extra for instant as soon as news post was made yesterday and I still show nothing. Am I just missing something?
Sorry, I didn't know they wouldn;t show in out wardrobe. I had to use that link and saw I have warts on my ankles :( Boo LoL
I signed up for Enamoured and then noticed the bar that said "pay for no waiting". So I clicked it, went back to the VIP page and saw Enamoured was no longer selected. I clicked Enamoured again and it looked as though it accepted the choice. It apparently accepted both choices.
Maybe I caught it in a glitchy moment?
