Title: Please bear with me.
Post by: OhioLawyer on June 09, 2010, 03:11:29 pm
When the servers went down and came back up, I think I was in the middle of adding some smileys to the extra smiley box.  Because of this, when the server came back up, it appears that all of the code in our header/footer was corrupted.  So now it is all blank.  :'(

And those codes have been added over the years to give us many of the features we currently enjoy.

So right now I have the owner of the whole forum that we use seeing if we can get backed up information to fix our header/footer.

If not, I will have to go through the LOOOONG process of getting all that code back.  And with a baby due soon, and work, this might be a process of weeks/months.

So please bear with me while I figure this out.  Hopefully the information can be restored, but if not, I have a TON of work to do.  :'(

Yeah it is rare that our servers go down like that.  And since they were down the other day I thought it was over.  Then, bam, today right in the middle of the day.  What are the chances?

Anyway, the owner of the forums is considering contracting with new servers, but that may not happen.  Even if it doesn't, I've been fairly satisfied with these servers.  I just think it was a freak thing that they happened to go down while I was editing the site.  :-\

And sorry about the change to blackjack, but until I get things figured out I am depressed and needed my precious blackjack skin while I work on the site.

I hope you don't mind.  But the skin changer was part of the header so I have to redo that too.

Whew!  The forum owner had backups of my header/footer from June 6.

So the only thing we lost was a few of the smileys I have added recently. 

I'll get to those when I geta chance.  I'm just glad we didn't lose anything else.  If you notice anything changed, just post here and I'll fix it too.

Ok everything (except the missing smileys) are fixed, I think.  I also reset the default skin to default2.  The skin selector is available again at the top of the page to change it to your preferrence (mine is blackjack or course O0 ).
