I don't think that's what's going on here, I've tried closing out some background processes and I get nothing. I've also now tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling the game, and that gives me nothing too.

Okay, update: I tried connecting through my cell phone (started a mobile hotspot and used that instead of my wifi) and was able to connect to the Gallery. I think something must just be wrong with my connection. Which is annoying, because I am a college student using my university's wifi and so I can't exactly just go fix my router. Guess I'll just have to deal with this. Thank you to everyone for trying to help, though!
