Well a few months ago, I was complaining about my current hosting providers support, and how i felt they must be tanking at the lack of response and support i was getting. Well, Unfortunatly i was correct. Phenominet, a hosting company that i would concider a small operation, is closing their doors and filling for bankruptcy. I had hosted my site with them for almost the entire time of their existance. Never had downtime, never had a problem until about 4 months ago…

I went ahead and switched off of them seamlessly… and it was a good thing i did it when i did. As this was is a snippet of the email i received this morning:

Phenominet is going out of business, and filing bankruptcy.

There are several factors for this, the primary two being the current economy and the loss (through death, grave illness, and relocation) of several key personal.

We will be keeping your site up as long we can, but cannot guarantee any length of time, so it is important you begin moving your site(s) as soon as possible so you don’t experience downtime.

Goodluck to them, they were a great provider when i was with them.

yes, its true. 1 image i made the other day for the background to this wordpress theme. Got the basic concept from a tutorial from spoongraphics ( i’d post a link.. but his/her site does not want to load this morning) Added a little extra flair to it and their you have it. Check out the print section to see it.
