Have you got back ups?

[uglygit]

Have a backup of flasharcadegamesite.com only but its about a week old , in that time I did some major work on the theme.

Godaddy came back to say there a problem with the server and and there fixing it. So I'm hoping all the content is there.

Fingers crossed and always back up after any changes.

It happened to me a long time ago. Server was hacked and I lost a lot of work. I did have backups but they were months old. It took me 3 weeks to sort it all out.

Call me paranoid, but I now take a back up of my backup. Just in case I get hit with a double whammy. (server hacked and pc fecked)

Get yourself one of these:

4GB for a tenner. That's the same capacity as the hard drive on the first pc I bought! and now I can carry it on my keyring

Anytime I make changes, I save to my hard drive and then plug this little beauty in and save it there as well. I sleep a lot better a nights now :-D
