325256 2005-02-18 00:31:00 Heh.....I have albums from both those bands on LP somewhere, Well, at least i did, When I went to Aussie I stored all my junk in my parents shed, Then one day the old boy decided his space was worth more then my junk and threw away hundreds and hundreds of my LP's.


OUCH!!! :eek:

I thought it painful enough when my 15-month-old baby had a ball with several of my most favourite precious LPs, skidding them around on a concrete floor (new house prior to carpet) but that just doesn't compare at all. :(

And how can anyone not like Kiss? :illogical


I was made for loving you baby, you were made for loving me....

:D

Metla - liked your site. Take much effort to get mySQL running etc? Any thought on bandwidth vs posts and other sizing related matters?

325258 2005-02-18 01:53:00 Everything was handled at the hosts end of things, I just selected the install Forum option in the control panel and ...boomfa......There it apeared.

Went and download a few themes and within a very short time it was exactly as you see it.

Bandwidth hasn't been an issue as of yet and I am on the lowest plan provided by the hosts,though the size of the forum is fast consuming space that had been allocated to the site.

325259 2005-02-18 02:06:00 kiwiwebhost.co.nz look quiet good. anyone else have any comments or experience of using them? scarfie (7324)
325260 2005-02-18 02:22:00 If I can blow their trumpet just a little bit.

Currently have 3 sites hosted by them, The main one being my company site and I have only seen the site down at their end the one time and for a very short period.

Im sure them have been other instances but they haven't happened reguler enough for me to notice.

On top of that the cp they provide is excellent, the prices are spot on, and the few times I have needed to contact them they answered my mail so quickly i could swear there was someone there reading and answering (real answers) it.

325261 2005-02-18 02:39:00 I have been working on the net for a number of years, and have had a number of hosts .

Truely http://myhost . co . nz/ are the best I have come across, they have built in software, via a control panel, of about 20 or more programs - blogs, messageboards, shopping software, php software etc etc . , as well as stats, meters, email etc . Its fanatastic .

Loading the software is a one click operation, and its upgraded automatically - one click upgrades often . Here is their free software . myhost . co . nz/site/optional" target="_blank">www . myhost . co . nz

Their help desk via email is within hours, they are fast and little to no downtime .

Anyway, I also use XMB software for my messageboard, and Wordpress for my blog .

325264 2005-02-19 04:19:00 Oh BTW,
The reason I use XMB is it was, at the time I moved to it, the only system indexable by google. Thats because the addresses were easy for the search engine to follow without extra charactors that confuse the bots.

They offer loads of good deals at the moment, including Free Web Hosting right through to unlimited hosting. They offer free installation of PHPBB2 bulletin Board software aswell as FTP and c-Panel access.
