A good example of how can make a delicious visual product on the simple content. 
I also liked the CD covers for 2010:
As a result, two French covers and English one. French are ahead for 2010 (in my view, of course). 
Interestingly, I recently discovered that the upcoming work for the 2011 CDs page may be the most time consuming in this section.  There was a French CD set of 100 discs, some of which contain the Avengers theme. So far I have not seen a single source that would disclose the contents of all these 100 CDs, and I have to look at auctions and other places for individual discs to check the contents of all. Also, I do not yet know if I will post the content of all 100 discs on one Steedumbrella page, as it will be too much.

Unlim365 that Steedumbrella is hosting has left.
On October 29 the paid Unlim365 went offline as the hosting domain registration period has expired (C-panel is still working today).
http://unlim365.ru/
I noticed this at the moment when I was planning to post the "CDs from 2011" page - funny, while I was finishing the page on the same day, October 29th, hosting still worked, but when I was ready to post the material it was already offline. I did not rush to conclusions and decided to wait, since I made a certain payment in advance shortly before, but more than two weeks have passed and there are no changes there.
I have already chosen another hosting for the move and Steedumbrela will be online again sometime in December (now I have several other plans for the extra money and the current edited content of the site is still small enough to generate due interest - so there to be no rush to recover).

Sorry to hear this Denis, it really is annoying when hosting companies mess people about and result in a lot of unwanted and un-asked for extra work. I hope you get the new site up and running with as little hassle as possible.

Thanks, Franky! Other the saddest thing is that there is no difference between paid and free hosting regarding the reliability your site there - that is, you are not sure that at some point your content will not be stolen or the hosting simply will not be closed for some reason. I paid for the year in advance - although I started on this hosting monthly - just paid and the hosting disappeared almost immediately.  I feel easily deceived even though the site has been hosted by Unlim365 since 2019. And it remains to be seen if the next hosting will be the last stop.

Yesterday I noticed that part of the current hosting for Steedumbrella is back online, the functionality for orders and login does not exists.
https://unlim365.ru/
I do not know the plans of the Unlim365 leadership, in any case I will move to other place in due time.
Plan to spend the part of the extra money on paying for an order for Steedumbrella on the new hosting https://sherlockhost.ru/ (after the end of work on the section on the performers on this forum):
http://avengersfanforum.s2.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=4130
Judging by the way things are going, I think it will happen this spring.

Things have gone quite unexpectedly since yesterday regarding Russia's actions, clearly all this will hit many aspects not only of the country, but also that the scheduled existence of Steedumbrella in the international online is now in question. The hosting on which I planned to locate the website has a legal address in Israel, and technical support in the USA. Probably in the coming days hosting maybe closed for access in Russia.
In general, the situation looks like Russia has moved sharply towards the Iron Curtain. It is not known how far this will go, but for now there is a feeling that in the coming week everything will change a lot towards this direction. In reality, I have rather favorable personal conditions in Moscow, so I (still) have no desire to move to another permanent residence, which will definitely complicate my life within the framework of what is happening in recent years and especially current days around. However, many things will depend on further developments.

Yes, it does look like we will be back in the Cold War which of course The Avengers made good dramatic use of in the 1960s (and The New Avengers in the 1970s). "Oh, East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet" - Rudyard Kipling.

Exactly, Franky, the Avengers/TNA have become relevant again with their themes of the Cold War, invasions and the capture of the world as a whole.
At least the former friendship of many peoples outside the framework of power has not disappeared anywhere in connection with the latest events.
Thanks Franky for these your and Rudyard Kipling words. You have always been able to speak to the point unlike some politicians.

We can salute the bravery of ordinary Russians (or rather, extraordinary!) who stand up for freedom and non-violence. Not all Russians are bad, they have a bad dictator in charge and some kleptocrats supporting him.

Fortunate, part of the common people with brains able to analyze information outside the media more or less in the right direction. Not many nations are bad, just some probably have a bad dictator in charge and some kleptocrats supporting him.
Oh, the situation is of course serious, but it is simply amazing what we have seen in the politics of a number of countries lately.

Many thanks, Nick, for these gold words. We are definitely on the same wavelength with this.

Thanks for the some changes on forum now, I just thought I was getting really carried away off the main topic of the forum.

Your father just died?  That's just terrible. Real personal tragedy.
I wouldn't want to bother you, Piers, although I'm curious what happened - age?
Deep condolences to you and your family. I wish you many good memories of your father and to keep your health.

very sorry to hear about this..it's never easy losing a parent..or both parents.
we are never really prepared for it, when it happens...myself, both of my parents are gone. 1976 & 1982. if they were around today, my dad would be 112..and mother 106........sad foot note ..is that I outlived everyone else in
my family. two brothers, two sisters. all gone now.....so I can certainly understand being on edge about your dad's passing.
don't let it get you down...my friend...and take care. |
