Candy *canes*? Are you mocking me?  


So I am back. 'What? she was away?!' you may be asking yourselves. Or probably not. Either way, yes I was. For two whole weeks. I had some computer problems and it has taken me some time to have it fixed. Also I changed my Internet Service Provider which gave me some troubles as well eventhough it's supposed to be of an easy transfer. But since I am Miss Hatedbyallcomputers Andallthingsrelated, it came no near to the word 'easy'. As it's said though, all is well when it ends well. ;)

I have to confess I'm amazed so many people friended me during these two weeks I was gone. O_O Thank you and I hope I won't let you down. I've missed PSP terribly! I shall work on something soon.

Oh, by the way, a few words regarding my textures. Having no place to host the zip files I wasn't able to post them for your convenience in the beginning but thanks to two lovely and very kind women who offered me bandwith on their websites, asking nothing in return, that was and is possible for quite some time now. I got an email from one of them saying someone had hotlinked a zip file in some board. Do not do it. Hotlinking the zip files is out of the question. Completely and utterly out of the question! I don't like hotlinking at all, in any shape or form, and, most importantly, the bandwith I use to upload the zip files is not mine, I'm using it due to the generosity of [info]gflady2 and [info]cinemachickette and I feel upset, even if it's not my doing, when people use that bandwith, that are not theirs, without permission. You may save the textures do what you want with them but don't hotlink. That's all I ask.

That is all. Have a good weekend everyone! :)

Computers are the tools of the devil sometimes, I'm convinced of it!

Welcome back! *hugs* And look forward to pretties from you in the near future :D
Helena[info]elrawien on October 15th, 2006 09:52 pm (UTC)
OH I am convinced of it myself too. With all the computer problems I have had since my first computer...I cannot say the opposite. Evol they are indeed.

Thanks, hon. :D *hugs back*

Welcome back, honey! Glad to know that your PC problems have been resolved and i'm looking forward to see some of your beautiful art again. :-)

Bandwidth theft really sucks. Fortunately most webhosts now provide tons of it so unless someone has a website that's got lots of media on it, it's kind of hard to reach or even exceed their limit. My webhost allows me 999 Gigs of bandwidth per month, which is insane 'cause I'll never need that much, and it also provides me with what they call "hotlinking protection", whereas if someone clicks on any given file that leads directly to my site, the link will point to the homepage instead of the file itself. I love that! :-)
Helena[info]elrawien on October 15th, 2006 09:57 pm (UTC)
Thanks Sarah! :D

My friend's bandwith actually suffered nothing because the hotlinked links didn't work. They'd go to a page where it said it was bandwith theft because the site where they were posted were not on my friend's authorized sites list. But nonetheless it's a pain. I thought it was common sense not to hotlink but I suppose that was a naive thinking from my part. It's good your webhost gives you so great advantages though. :D

*hugs*

Welcome back, and if you ever need a place to store textures, etc., please let me know!
Helena[info]elrawien on October 15th, 2006 09:53 pm (UTC)
Oh thank you so much for your offer. :) If I ever need it, I'll contact you for sure.

Thank you for the welcome as well. :D

You were gone ONLY two weeks???? It seemed much longer to me than that. I was thinking last Friday, I must e-mail you this week and find out what's wrong. I'm so happy to see you back and know you are okay.
I hope your PC and INET troubles are behind you now and all will work more smoothly from now on.
*much love and many hugs*
Helena[info]elrawien on October 17th, 2006 09:47 pm (UTC)
It seemed an eternity to me those two weeks too. *giggles* Aw, there was no need to worry. I had warned I was having some problems with my computer. Good to know you thought of me though, hon. :)

Everything is working dandy. :D *much love and many hugs back*

I had warned I was having some problems with my computer.
A warning is one thing, two weeks away is another. *wags finger at you*

*wink*
