missing from database

2 days ago, I logged into SL, and wanted to show something I had made to a friend of mine... but got the message: "Unable to create requested object. Object is missing from database".
This was a shame, and I could have lived with it, if it was only that one object... but then I wanted to show my friend something else, and I got the exact same message... starting to seing a patern here, I startet testing everything I've made in the last year (I'm a scripter/builder) and pretty much everything was "missing from database".
I then tried loging out, clearing my cache and loging back in... which turned out to be a very bad idea, as when I loged in, I got the message: "Replaced missing clothing/body part with default" (got that message about 10 times)

so now, I'm partially white, my clothes is gone, nearly all my builds is gone, and about half of my scripts is gone...

my question is, is there ANY way to recover this?
I have tried using the SL Alpha build on linux, to see if it should be a freak client problem, and I've tried transfering some of the "bad" objects to a friend of mine, but without any results... it's still all gone :(
(and of course, I've filed a support ticket, but as I'm only basic account, I don't know how long I'll have to wait, if it will help anything at all) :(

EDIT: btw. all the stuff still show up in my inventory, it just wont rez, load or show. (the messages)

I am having a similar problem, which I will make a new topic about. Last night I teleported to a club and started changing before everything was loaded. My avatar pants were black and tight..w asnt the clothing i had on. Then i rebaked and that was a mistake cause it turned my whole avatar, hair, and all attachments solid black. Everyone seen it that way too. I rebaked again, changed skins, did apperance, cleared cache, restarted Pc, and even Reinstalled. Still, I am solid black!

I got the message when i logged in saying Missing gesture from database.

seems to me, that there is something wrong with the SL database server, and the Lindens just havn't noticed yet.
Blake, have your avatar gone back to normal yet? and is your stuff shown in the inventory, (but unableto rez) or is it gone?
Actually, same questions for you Alexis.

thanks Lex!
Have voted, and hope it will get fixed soon!
(don't see any point in keeping my shop open, when anything I re-build/re-script can just as easily be lost again.)
