Something Happened at Webcreme

I have been quite a regular visitor to webcreme the design showcase site for CSS based websites. But sadly, the site is down, for more than a day. Wonder whats happening? Have they forgotten to pay their hosting dues?[Unlikely!] Has it been bought? [possible!] Has somebody posted an adult site and got reported ? [Probable!] Whatever it is, this is a sad way to go.

From a branding point of view, they may lose their niche position.. All that you get to see is a url that reads “http://baylor.hostingzoom.com/suspended.page/” with a message “We’re still here and have not gone anywhere. Please excuse the mess and check back shortly. Thank you! Webmaster: Contact support as soon as possible.”

Quite a mess I must say..

UPDATE:  Its up and back as of today, 16 March, with never a note or acknowledgement about the off time.. Aw…. This kind of behaviour is not too good… Sad..

The site was down because without warning Hosting Zoom has suspended our account for using too much of their resources. I’ll be switching hosts soon, so there can be some unpredicted behavior in the nearest hours. I will put up the notification, so visitors know what’s happening . BTW - nice to see that you care! :)
