Pierce, no need to say your sorry, these things happen from time to time.
Of course we missed the site, but it's all good now.

pierce,

thanks for everything. its a damn good thing you keep backups because i dont. though i should... now, if i just knew how. nothing was lost, i assume. no need for you to say you're sorry. it happens. thanks for moving us over to a more reliable server. im sure now that everything has made the move, things will go quite smoothly now.

*hugs*
thanks pierce,
nic

to make a backup, login to cpanel,

look for "backup" under site management click into it

then

Click Generate/Download full backup

enter your email address into the box. this way youll know when its finished!

click -> Generate Backup

wait for email from server.

then click back

{
if it says something like

backup-8.2.2005_22-58-15_pierce.tar.gz (in progress)

its still generating the backup

click refresh hopefully it will be finished

}

then click it, it should be a greenish blue color and it should download

Naughtycloset.com is about 10MB big and shouldnt take long to do.

P.S i make backups religiously on a sunday so the worst case is a week's worth of information lost. When my site, ReallySimpleNews.com becomes more popular, ill probably move it to a daily routine.
