On May 28, 2009 you may have noticed that the Forum was in maintenance mode for quite a while. Well it is a long story. But I won't bore you with all the details. The short of it is that I needed to apply an upgrade to the Forum software and there was a bug in the process. After trying many different methods to get it to work, I gave up and put the Forum back online.

Then today (May 29, 2009), I did some more research and found a workaround for the "bug". Now the Forum if properly upgraded and things appear to be okay again.

Thank you for your patience.

This was really a good idea gone bad for a variety of reasons.   sad I checked it today & the main BBC page hasn't been updated since June 1. Figure if they don't care why should i.

Let's paint our own HTP container before sending it around the globe, then we will start to send our pictures to the BBC just to make fun at them... Smiley More seriously, I agree that it was a good idea gone bad, but they might be victim of the slow economy too. They probably expected to have a higher rotation and less idle time for their can. By the way, the main page dates from June 1st, but the last report in Japan is from April 22nd and it was supposed to got in Russia before arriving in UK by... June or July. After that, they want to give it to some charity project in Africa.
