It looks like he's just having server issues. That seems to happen a lot with smaller businesses' and other websites that get a lot of traffic.

It almost looks as if someone forgot to pay the bill!

You might be right.

Hey, everyone!

Yes, I have exceeded my allotted bandwidth for the month (a first!) I will call tomorrow and we should be back up and running.

Thanks, Todd. It happens to the best of us. As a network admin, I have forgotten to pay that Network Solutions bill or whatever....

Keep up the good work.

I've also had that problem before with my website. Then about a year ago I found a much cheaper solution and have been VERY happy with the price and especially the service of the folks over at godaddy.com Some of the most resonable prices I have seen to date.

Also, my website appears to operate consistantly with almost no downtime that I have noticed. http://www.austinstructural.com Anyways, if you're looking for a good deal...check out godaddy.com

Nope, I don't get a kick back from them...I'm just a happy customer.

It's a shame Todd's went down during the Halloween rush, certainly the busiest time for a costumer! I hope they get back on line soon. They have a lot of excellent looking items, notable among them are the holsters, which look very good.

Thanks for the good advice. I just had to pony up another $5 for extra bandwidth and I was back online in 30 seconds. I wish they would have warned me first!

BTW - I've got some new stuff you all might be interested in...web belts...gun belts...black/brown hat ribbon...new strap buckles...check it out! (yes, I am a maniac).

Todd, you oughta put the link to your site in your sig...make it easier to find for some of us and might bring ya some more customers. Website looks great! I saw Indiana Mikey's Delux Holster Saturday and it looks great!

Thanks! I wasn't sure if it was okay to put a url for another website in your signature? Did I read that somewhere?

Quoting the regs, I think it's okay, so long as you aren't doing a graphic for Todd's Costumes, and you aren't making it sound like an ad. Sounds like just a simple link is okay:

That's from FORUM RULES. (As opposed to Michaelson Rocks.)

Mods, jump in if we are misinterpreting this.

I love the new buckle Todd, but dont you think $5 is a bit (actually, more than a bit) steep for the shipping??

Post by **Michaelson** » Tue Oct 26, 2004 7:01 pm

That's how I understand it as well, Jerry. Of course, that could have been decided on the day I missed the moderator meeting....

Yeah, you're right. Priority mail minimum is nearly $4 now, but I could put it in an envelope and send it first class for a few dollars less. I'll look into changing that on the shopping cart (if I can). Meanwhile, if you want one PM me or e-mail and we'll work it out.
