Dear Ziforums members:

We will be moving to a new host, which should be a better fit for our needs going forward. This will require a brief period of site closure on Thursday, April 22 beginning at 8:30 AM EST (-6GMT).

The site is expected to be inaccessible for approximately 4-6 hours. The actual server migration doesn't take very long. Most of that time is waiting for DNS propagation.

Thank you for your patience with this move. I've done quite a bit of research and feel confident that our new hosting company will deliver excellent performance and reliability going forward.

Amin

The migration is now done. Took about 1.5 hours http://www.mu-43.com/images/smilies/Generic/smile.gif.

Please have a look around and let me know if anything is broken. We'll try to get any kinks worked out asap.

Seems much faster already.

I'll keep an eye on links.

Links to my pictures as posted on other sites seem good.
