Neoguy17 Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 I used to use themexp.org...not anymore. Check out there site...they lost their entire database of themes...what kinda site doesn't back up their data anyway??? lol...i still can't get over the fact they lost everything....it's so funny.... :ponder: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destian Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 sure, in some ways, it sucks that they lost everything. honestly though, i think it's a good thing. there was so much outdated crap on that site it was ridiculous? remember when people first started skinning with mystyles and all the themes looked like luna? all seven billion of them? yeah, well those are all gone now. good thing if you ask me. oh yeah, and my login is back up so go DL it if you haven't yet. http://www.themexp.org/view_info.php?id=6 almost had id 7 :( grrrr.

Keldyn Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 Threads merged. In future i recommend you contact themexp themselves if there is a problem. There is little we (neowin) can do to resolve this. If there is a problem, they are the ones you need to speak to. ~Keldyn - neowin.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fr33k Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 I wonder what kind of bandwidth themexp.org uses every day, and every month? must be a lot all those people looking for themes and logon screens boot screens, and wallpaper, then all the downloading and uploading good thing that site isn't at geocites or they would be out of bandwidth in a second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzla Veteran Posted April 27, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 27, 2002 And suprisingly enough, they tell you exactly what happened on the main page: ThemeXP Reset - 04.25.02 @ 10:21 PM ESTAll right. We are fuming; all of the screenshots and uploads as of April 25 have been completely wiped from the server. There was a technical problem, and we really wish we had a backup of all the data, but we don't. So we really need your support right now to help us restore our database of submissions. However, we still respect the copyright of the author. Please do not submit works that are not yours unless you have the permission of the author. As badly as we want to get this site back up, we do not want to do it via illict means. We know what a pain this is for everyone. If you are still mad, please feel free to release it in the forums, but please refrain from flaming us because we've done all we can. Edit: woah, merge-age (is that even a word? :D :D If it isn't I'm sure Keldyn will make it so with his godly power ;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altezza Veteran Posted April 28, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 28, 2002 themexp.org mostly unstable and sometimes display incorrect SQL codes in the front page. It has something to do with MySQL coding...perhaps wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nXP_151 Veteran Posted April 28, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 28, 2002 Nope, it's the database, there is nothing wrong with MYSQL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
