We're back!

Its official now, were back and better than ever. Thanks to the help and support of our new admin, Akuma, we are officially back in business.







First of all, an explanation is required. At the start of this year I was laid off from my job with no redundancy package. I did make pleas for regular donations but unfortunately while donations came in at the time the pleas went out, the next month there would be nothing. The sites could not continue without regular financial support and eventually we lost the servers because the bill was overdue and I did not have the spare funds to pay it. It was a heart wrenching decision to let the servers go but having no money to pay the bill left me with no choice. We had really been living on borrowed time since the start of the year and the inevitable happened in March.





Thanks to the generosity of Akuma we have been able to bring back the servers on a month to month basis. While Akuma has made assurances he will do all he can to make sure the servers wont go down again, and says we have at least 12 months, the sites are only going to be safe as long as were receiving donations guys Youve all experienced the heartbreak of watching it die once. Dont let it happen again! Rest assured, if you are a member of the sister sites  they are returning too. There is much work to do on each setting everything back up. Currently back up and running are:





We have lost a little data as the hosting company for the old servers would not allow me to copy any data from them the minute the bill was overdue, deleted the data 2 days after the billing date, and my most recent offline backup was around two months old. However, this is a small price to pay for having our community back I hope. Artists are invited to re-upload any missing works and any works they have created in the time since everything went down.





During the restoration of the sites we have made some much needed script updates. The gallery is now running on a new version which in my opinion looks much neater and more streamlined. Several of the plugins we make use of on the forum have also had updates applied to them. Bear with us for a short time as there will be errors and problems we need to fix and we shall be doing our best to sort things as soon as they are encountered. Akuma is also planning some personal customizations to the site that a lot of people have been wanting and that should really make things better. You should be hearing more about these very soon.
