I'm back online now. And guess what I found the second I got online? HG was again hacked.

GaH!

I'm still trying to fix this since this time around they actually managed to change my details around.. My password was changed, so I couldn't access anything on my account. It smells fishy! I'm so pissed off with my host right now. What kind of security do they have to let this happened to me a few times in the length of one year? And the weird thing is, all the times the account got hacked were when I was inactive or offline. It's just SO weird!!

I'm sorry again for the inconvenience, everyone. This kind of stuff only will make HG go down for good sooner. I'm just so tired of this shit REALLY!!

For those who applied and paid for membership, please don't worry. I will try to set up the new site as soon as I can, and you will get the membership soon. You don't know how sorry I am about this. Gosh.

In the meantime, I will try to make updates on the hgx community with using a different server. Until the new site's set up and running, I will use the communty as HG's replacement for a while. I hope that this will be okay with everyone. I'll try to set HGX on a different site all together for a while as well.. this will take a while since I have to build my memberships' database again on the new server...

i'm freaking out.

Please don't hate me.... realllyyyyyyyyyyyy sorrryyyyyy, guys!!!

love,

Hey people, I'm just dropping by here to post a short notice that I currently have no landline/adsl connection at all since a week ago. They said that something major went down because of the storm.. so yeah, the whole neighborhood (200+ households) have no connection to the net or the phone at all. They said that it all should be back online again within a week or so.

But who knows. They didn't sound convincing at all. Right now I'm at my mom's house and only can be here for a few hours.

As soon as I get back online, I will have updates for everyone. I'm using the offline time to work on things and creating goodies.

And I miss you all a lot. Everytime I sit in front of my computer feels like something huge is missing.. *sniffs* I hope you guys are all okay.. Seriously, it's been so long since I read anything on LJ.

But Okay, please take care and I'm sorry for being gone for so long.

Love you all!

Wondering why I've been absent here? Bad virus been going around infecting everyone around here.. Kids are all ill as well as hubby. So far I'm the only one still standing strong. But you know, as soon as they all get better, I'd be dying. That's just how things are with motherhood. Well... so i'm just letting everyone know that I haven't forgotten anyone or anything online... I'm just so busy trying to get everyone to get better, keeping everything sterille and all.. so yeah.. I'll be back.. but dunno when, maybe next week I'll be able to update with some goodies or news or photos, etc.

Thanks for understanding, lovelies!

Dear all... everyone who supported me yesterday with the artwork theft.

I really appreciated ALL that YOU have done either by commenting or reporting the thief to DA. Really, Thank you so much, everyone! DA has banned the account!

I thought just by contacting him personally would have solved the problem. I really didn't want to make it such a big deal, you know? (I waited for his response for about a month...)But then I had to do something if he decided to ignore me. I couldn't just let him do that.. And yes, looking through his gallery, I most certainly am sure that he took a lot of others' work and 'collaged' them into pieces to make them his own somehow. If it's not only for me, it was also for other artists' work that probably had been abused by him.

So thanks so much!!

For those who haven't been watching my updates in my community hgx, I've posted a new set of 30 Icon Textures this morning..

Made something new for my exclusive members too..

Check this out!

I'm overwhelmed with the responses that I received in my last Photography post. WOW. Thank you SO much for all the encouraging feedback, everyone. I'm in no way a photographer nor even qualified to be called an amateur in this. I've only started using a camera to play around in 2005.. when my lovely friend & mentor sameinanylingo let me adopt her baby :D. Laura has been my inspiration and of course my photography teacher. I've watched her work for years and have admired her stunning work since the first time we got to know each other.. I love her to bits.

( Just some information about my photos/cameras... )

And that's that. So here are some photos for you to see.

(  'point & shoot'  )

Well, I better be off. The kids are waiting for me... I can't wait till they go back to school! I haven't been working at all since they're on their holiday. It's just impossible.
