Update:
As most of you have probably noticed, the website has been offline. The hacking continued and ultimately it destroyed both the site and my desktop. I'm starting over, the desktop is in for repair and I will be working on a new website and a new blog. In the meantime, check here to stay up to date with what's going on and to view my latest work.
If you had a gallery online and you've noticed it offline for a few days, I've worked hard at getting all those galleries back online. If you are still having problems viewing your gallery, please email me and I will send you the link to your gallery. All galleries were added and updated as of the end of today.

Thanks so much
Melanie

Hacking Update

So, it's not just my website that is being hacked. It's actually a keystroke logger that is infiltrating my system and getting all my personal information. This is how they are able to hack into my website repeatedly (and this has been going on for some time) Nothing is safe on a system when a keystroke logger is involved, any personal information, passwords, bank accounts if utilized online... everything is at risk. This system will be going in once again and now that it has been identified, hopefully this time they can get rid of this for good.

I can't tell you how hard this has been on both myself and my business and I can't thank you enough for your support.

Thank you loyal clients

Hacked
You will notice the site is down and will probably experience problems throughout the rest of this week. The site was hacked, everything had to be deleted and basically everything is being installed from scratch. I really would like to know what the point to hacking someone's site is? I'm not sure exactly what happened, but it started in the forum with someone hacking into that portion, I thought everything was under control but it just continued from there until it hit every database I had and finally disabled all my email accounts. For those of you who have galleries, please know that I am working hard to re-install these galleries but some of them are in excess of 2000+ files and this is taking some time. My email accounts have been re-created so please, if you have any questions email me and I will get back with you as soon as possible. If I don't respond to your email please call my cell phone at: 260.760.5581
Please contact me directly, do not use any of the automatic email forms through the site. I am really not trusting very much at this point. I've had a very rough year between computer crashes and hosting/site issues.

I have part of the html site re-installed but it's taking me much longer to work out the kinks with the flash based site. Please check back here for updates and sneak peeks until things are ironed out.

Thanks so much for your continued support
