  We do not have a clue what you are talking about. Volunteers answering forum questions have no prior notice of what staff are doing in the backend. Please be more specific. Did you get an error message? If so what did it say?

  BTW I can see your blog just fine using firefox 2.0.0.11 and I notice that you have a lot of large images in the posts on your front page. I recommend that you reduce the number of posts on the front page to decrease page loading time and the need for excessive scrolling. This can be done here -> Options -> Reading

  I can see your blog fine now as well. It must have been a small interruption in the service. BTW, I really like your blog :)

  Thanks guys, but it is still down from here.

  I am getting a “server not found” screen. Happens whether I use my bookmark, sign in to wordpress.com, enter the url manually, etc….

  Timethief….do you really think that’s necessary? The allure of my blog is the food photos…I like to show them off :-)

  It must be an issue on your side. Can you clear your browser cache or try it on another browser (ie, firefox, etc) ?

  I’m into food and recipes too. ;) If you don’t think it’s necessary that’s okay but do be aware that most people on the internet are on dial-up service and page loading time for them is really slow when there are many posts with many large images.

  Trent and Timethief:

  Thanks, guys!

  It came back just now. Phew!

  Is that true, most people still have dial up? wow.

  Yes it’s true. You’re welcome. :)

  Here’s a tip for you. Start using an offline blog editor so you don’t lose posts in situations like this.
