Old Archive of reviews

I am writing the script to generate HTML pages of all my reviews. I haven't had much spare time. But until I get them generated and up, here's an older archive of my reviews, unfortunately only up to date until November of 2003.

It's on Tripod, just as a warning, so there are pop-ups.

Will have archive of reviews posted soon...

I will post an archive of my old DVD reviews soon. I wanted to have them up sooner. I finally received the backup of my data and have spent a while trying to load it onto the SQL instance on my computer wasn't working. Almost thought I lost everything! Anyways, today, I finally got it and looks to be all there. I'm going to write a script that will generate HTML and then post the pages up onto Tripod or something for the time being.

Later, take care!

DVD Collector's Haven

If you're coming to the site through an outside link looking for a certain review, I will have my old reviews posted soon...

Well, it looked like it happened anyways: My site is down.

It was a rough year for the DVD Colletor's Haven. I finally got some changes to the site done, was getting things up to speed, actually started receiving screeners and when things were looking good for the site and myself well: 1.) Hurt my knee, develop a clot in it, which then passed to my lungs and almost killed me 2.) Get laid off, and 3.) Lose the site (OK, the first two, especially #1, are worse than #3, but it doesn't make it any less aggravating.) Yeah, it's been a crap-tastic year!

At any rate, for those that haven't been following I did find another job and had to move cross-country. During the past month I haven't really been maintaining my site because I haven't been able to (still haven't found a place) and I find out this past weekend it's been taken down.

So now I'm just building my own web server and hosting the site myself. Someone is doing a visual redesign for me so I'm hoping to have a nice looking site. When this will happen I can't say right now. Until then, though, I'll be using this blog to post new reviews once I find a new place.

For people who used the DVD Organizer I am sorry. Your data has been backed up up until the end of December. Anything added after that has more than likely been lost. When the site is up again I will be putting all that data back in.

As for my old reviews I'll be generating HTML files from my database of reviews and then posting them on something like Tripod, linking to them from here. I won't have room for screen captures or images, but I'll see if I can set up something eventually.

This sucks (for lack of a better word) and I'm pissed but this is what I'm going to have to do for now.

Anyways, everyone take care. My next post will be all my old reviews.

Later,
Chris
