Majesticbear.com is temporarily (I hope) offline due to the host server apparently going bankrupt.

How long it will be down for I cannot say, so if anybody wants any minis in the meantime you'll have to email or PM me.

Sorry to hear you're off line dave. Can I help in any way (I have a ton of webspace going un-used that might give you a temporary home until you get your new site sorted)

Thanks for the offer Alan, but to do that I'd have to give it a temporary domain name. Then I'd have to notify everyone of the new URL. Also, there isn't a recent backup of the site coding as that was stored on the server aswell. Potty has some of the initial programming stuff I believe but not anywhere near the completed version. :(

This situation has been a learning experience for me. In future I will be sure not to put all my eggs in one basket.

To be honest though, a recent surge in gaming has resulted in a downturn in my sculpting productivity as I'm using my spare time to paint Lotr mini's rather than sculpt new ones at the moment. I'm fortunate to now have 3 regular opponents, one of whom goes by the name of Ebob, I think (although I've never heard of him :P ).

How is this going Dave? Is there anything I can do to help at all - like coding a new site or something?

Well I can tell you that my new domain is www.majesticbear.net
If the .com domain becomes available again in the future I will snap it back up aswell, but that won't be for at least a year.

Potenza has been away for a couple of weeks but I think he gets back today so the old copy of the site will hopefully get uploaded soon, and then it will just need updating. :D

As John mentioned above, Spectre Hobbies now carries Majestic Bear products in the US, which is great news for all you North Americans.

Great to hear, I've been eager to look at the product list, and my money is itching to fly your way. Looking forward to buying from you soon in the near future

Looking forward to the new site.
When I was thinking of viewing all the products in detail. When I was on CoS and the link didn't work I was not happy.

Not your fault though. So, hope to see the new site then.
