If you type the website address in, it says the site's domain name is expired. Are we floating in cyberspace?

It has happened in the past Laura, but I don't know why. Try clicking on this: unomas.proboards10.com/index.cgiBut then..........if you couldn't get into the BB, you would never see that I just posted that!!! I sent that same link to Christine when she couldn't get in, and she got right on in.

I typed www.unomas21.com on a borrowed computer yesterday and was connected. I typed it on mine just now and was connected. Hopefully, it was a one time glitch for you. mb

Oops. Thanks for the heads up. I forgot to renew the domain name! I knew it was coming up for renewal soon but forgot the date.
It's paid up now, so it should be back online in a few hours.
Thanks for the heads up!

THANKS, Michelle, both for renewing, and for verifying that I wasn't losing my mind. Or maybe I am, but not as it relates to this, LOL!
LOL to you Cbean, you could certainly be forgiven for what you were thinking.....and you're hormonal to boot! HUGS to you, girl!

Another way to get around this problem when it occurs is to type in something like "Uno Mas Down syndrome online" into the search. Then scroll down and check out the various sites.........anything that says www.unomas21.com won't work, obviously. But if you see something that says unomas AND proboards, you're IN! It's kind of scary when we can't get here! Susan

When I realized the domain name was down, I thought "Oh my gosh. People are going to think I just shut down the site!" So: no, no, it wasn't anything intentional.
I have thought about moving the Bulletin Board off of ProBoards many times, and back onto the regular domain ... but I consider having the site spread over 3 different servers as a form of insurance. The BB hosted on ProBoards and the photo album on an entirely different host/server and domain ( http://www.unomas21.org) ... this way if one section goes down, there should always be a way to connect.
So, you might want to bookmark the main BB page. Also if the unomas21.com ever runs into a big crash, I would use the .org domain to communicate what's going on. (www.unomas21.org) Gee, I wonder if I let that one lapse? I'd better go check!

Michelle,
I think the current setup is perfect.....and the "insurance" portion of that setup is what I like most about it!!! Hopefully folks will read this thread and bookmark the main BB site so they can access it if necessary. Thanks! Laura
