you could try telling them that it's all your own work therefore you own the copyright, something along those lines..therefore none of it's illegal as it's all your own work.

i can but they are yankie w**kers. Stubborn and nasty. once lost all my stuff before and they just said "sorry"

[Shooms]

Nath mate - choked for ya I looked at it only yesterday for the 1st time & was well impressed with it - was gonna d/l the vids today too

Any idea when/where you'll be back up ?

[nathan]

that's a pain. After lots of arse kissing (had to be done) i have saved the domain and space but lost all the stuff that was on there and it took me months to get it together. so will let you know

[Tigger]

No way man, that is seriouly bad news, I am well gutted for you.

Surely you have a copy of the website on your own machine though? The video files are your by right as you made em the only dubious stuff is the music files as technically that is a breach of copyright and they are cracking down on it heavily in the US.

Maybe you should look for a UK host and transer the domain across - I use webfusion and they are the business.

if they give you unlimited space for £3.50 a month i'll give i t a try. Worked out what it was. hey don't know mch about old skool mp3's that wasn't the problem. I uploaded half of ali g in da house to the root directory by mistake. And they found it. Basic schoolboy error costing me to flush about 3 onths work dow the pan

Unlucky m8, sent those tunes over to you this week!

Have you got a backup?

[nathan]

the first thing i thought was oh no i lost those tunes konspiracy sent. Basically I rent unlimited webspace cause I have no hard drive space. So i need to have a sorta locker to keep stuff. Anybody who has sent me tunes pls contact me so I can grab them again

[Konspiracy]

Wouldntve thought thatd be the 1st thing you thought if you lost all your web design!!!

Still gottem, let me know where to put them
