So glad to see you back up George! I lurk the hell outta this forum, learning stuff, or attempting to learn some stuff. Figured it was about time I made an account, if only for the purpose of expressing my joy of seeing the site back up and running.

Re: Forum and website status
Just echo what everyone else has said. This is a one of kind place for information and civility. We did have some "fun" on Rigtalk but geez the venom out there is amazing.
Thanks again George for everything. I believe I actually played more guitar over the last week than usual.

What a debt we owe to George for all that he does to keep this going. Thanks to his vision, drive, and passion we have a great info resource and a comfortable place to ask questions and exchange opinions. If any of you have the means and have not done so, say thanks by ordering one of his great products.

Re: Forum and website status
Still tweaking some things, pruning some things. Found some corrupted files. Might actually lose all uploads to date, which will be terrible. I hate to lose all the pics and diagrams posted over the years. But, I'm afraid this is a real possibility. Corrupt files may indicate infected files and I can't take that risk. It's very likely that the attack which took us down was initiated from an upload.

Re: Forum and website status
This is why members need their own photo hosting accounts, and you need to stop hosting any pics. The files/pics/diagrams can have imbedded trojan horses/malware that you don't know about until they're unzipped/unpacked and expanded.VelvetGeorge wrote:Still tweaking some things, pruning some things.

George, you can't host files for members, it's site suicide.
