sure, node. :) and i found frizza's email and messaged her last night. i guess it's always possible they went on vaca or had some family emergency and in the meantime that hacker finished off swiftparrot.

Howdy Howdy G'day

All is well and http://swiftparrot.com is back up again. I had some security issues with my old set up and had to shut it down. I have decided that using a provider is a better way of going (save electricty and more bandwidth etc etc) Ive gone with http://www.ixwebhosting.com, they seem a great mob (and cheap)

I'm also adding a photo album thingo its only in its early stages (you van have peak at http://swiftparrot.com/gallery but it only has four pictures on it for now (not mine). Since I'm getting into photography I'll probably use that to share photos :)

Ciao, who luvs ya? Subby luvs ya ;)

P.S my equipment so far is Canon 350d Digital SLR with the following lenses: 400mm 5.6L EF , 70-200mm 4L , 18-55mm EFS an the 50mm 1.8 prime.

Good to hear from ya' subby. Photography eh? Have fun. I did photography in school about 2 years ago, but that was with black & white film... Had to develop it ourselves, tricky stuff...

G'Day Guys

It's back up again after a problem with a db file not accessable for some reason, when i realised, i sent a trouble ticket with all the info that i had, the hosting company (IXwebhostiing) fixed it within 15 min... I was quite impressed with their support!
