Just like DPReview and a few other large photography sites, BPN is recovering from a hack attack.
Our first order of business is to get the server stable. Our next steps in this order will be, return performance to peak levels and then fix links to missing images.
Our overall plan includes ways to prevent future attacks and fast change-over backup servers.
The bad guys are really smart, so we have recruited some even smarter folks to help us prevent successful attacks in the future.
Please continue to be patient while we work this out.
I would like to apologize for not communicating this better. I have been so single minded (as have the rest of our recovery team) in my attempt to get us back and stable that I neglected to communicate with those who mean the most to us - you. I am sorry.
