Eric and all.......
Thanks so much for the hard work at getting the site back up and running, I REALLY went thru withdrawls while it was offline.

I too, will not be accepting your generous offer, just having the site back is reward enough for me.

Thanks again for all the hard work you do.

I totally agree with Chris and John, I had no intentions either of using the free month. In fact I didn't even use the Google coupon!

Nice to know that I am among such loyal and gracious peers!

Welcome back all! I'm happy to see you back.

I believe the email issue will persist and may in fact be worse now. My understanding is that when a new system comes around, most email servers will, by default, reject those messages to see if the server tries sending again. With the server being off-line for a while, it may have been flagged as a spam server by some email systems. After a month or so it should get back to the way it was before the original server move.

Sorry for the outage!

The DailyAwards.com website was down for an extended time from Saturday (Feb. 24) to Tuesday (Feb. 27). The cause of the outage was server failure.

The site has been restored and the last of the images are copying over as I write this. I want to apologize for this extended outage and say that I will do all that I can to prevent this from happening again.

As a way to apologize, all users can add a month to their account using the coupon code at the end of this message. Thank you for sticking with the site thorough this trouble and I hope everything gets back on track soon.

If you encounter any issues with the site, you may respond to this message.

Sincerely,

Eric Elsten
