    Sorry for the site problem today...

     



    ...apparrently the company who makes the gallery software thought I had a pirated copy of the software and sent a nasty letter to the ISP to shut down the site. They acted on that request for legal reasons and I spent some time back and forth with the software company to resolve the issue.

    Turns out a typo in the url that the software was registered to caused the problem.

    Brent -

    Glad to see you got it straightened out. I had been trying all day to get online only to get a page selling tee shirts and other stuff. Couldn't send an email (didn't have your address in my regular email accounts (fixed that), and thought I would have to sign up at another site just to pm a moderator to find out what was wrong.

    At first I thought a nasty bug had hijacked my computer, but all of my other sites worked fine.

    Glad to have the site back up and running.

    BIG THANKS!!

    Hehe, I thought the company I work for put blocks on us surfing the web and I was redirected to the Home Shopping Network. Of course, I ONLY check in on CHR during my lunch hour.

    As Denny mentioned above, I am just the moderator(.0001%), Brent is the owner/operator of the site/forum. All I did in this case was send him an email letting him know the site was down. He took the time out of his business day (he does work a full time job other than this forum) to get things straightened out and back up on the server(s).

    Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

    Glad I didn't miss much - and thanks Brent for getting us back on line so
    I can 'be complete'

    Thank you Brent, I don't know what to do with my work day without this site. And Bill, thank you! Being a mod is a very thankless job.

    Now, somebody explain why most of my recent posts have been removed. Piracy? Highjacked? Personal issues? Give some BS that I might believe.
    I also am a mod on sites that are controversial and huge in context.
    I have a "Little Understanding" of how this stuff works so please break it down, the smoke will be good for the next BBQ I'm having.
    What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?
