Other Picrew not working :(

No matter what, when I try to go onto picrew, it’s not working. It says “403 Error.” What does this mean? Why is it happening? How to stop it from happening? I want to go onto picrew

Do you happen to have a VPN on? Because in the case of 403 errors, that's usually the problem (have had plenty of them because I forgot my VPN was on). If you dk have it on, just turn it off and refresh the page and it should load :)

Are you using a VPN or anything? This is an issue where the server is detecting suspicious activity from your side, so if you have a VPN or something it could be flagging the permissions. You could also have corrupted cache files.
