First off, I'd like to welcome aboard our newest advertiser - Squadron Mail Order. Coincidently I was fortunate to be able to drop into their facility for a visit and you can see the sights behind this interesting company in my article "Squadron Mail Order in Action". Now to the business at hand. I don't know how many of you are getting frustrated at not being able to access our site from time-to-time. When we moved onto this hosting company's servers, the specifications gave us plenty of bandwidth and storage space. As with anything involving computers anymore, we finally outgrew their capabilities and in order to keep Internet Modeler from choking off someone else's allocated bandwidth, we get 'throttled', which translates to periodic page rejections when you try to access the site. If you're frustrated, imagine our irk since we 'work here' and can't do anything without access to the site! Well the time has come to move on. We're looking at a few hosting companies for a new home and we expect to start our move in the coming weeks. If you run into a day or two of our disappearance from the net, fear not - we're just moving and they just haven't forwarded the 'phones' (URLs) yet. With these limitations out of the way, we plan on restoring our back-issues online and adding some other cool stuff in the coming months. Check back as we're going to grow! | |
