It’s been sat on the drive for ages so I thought I may as well let it go live. Check out the original post for the download link. If you have any issues let me know.

Over the weekend my hosting provider mailed me to say that the server my hosting was on had failed and some data was lost. Unfortunately they ended the rather brief e-mail with a blanket statement of ’some accounts had to be reset so simply upload your website…’. To say I’m not at all impressed would be an understatement!

It’s taken several hours to re-upload it and it’s likely to be a couple more to ensure it’s all back as it should be. No content has been lost as I keep a backup of everything uploaded. Unfortunately I have lost some of the site’s configuration settings (such as the gallery and the forum integration) as I didn’t have a recent copy of the mySQL DB content.

Normal service has once again resumed – apologies for the delay! I’ve still got some things to do on a few pages (such as the forum) but the game content is as it was (i.e. still not complete!).

Please note that as the pages are now hosted under my own web space, any domain specific bookmarks will now be invalid.

If you spot any issues, please let me know, thanks!

The IDE of VS sports a WPF based interface which is probably nothing to get excited about (after all a developer should demand speed and stability above all else). Read More…
