That may be related to the search engine being turned off, or something to do with the image database that will need to be rebuilt. There's a lot we cannot explore right now, as my avatar doesn't show up in those places either. I will be glad when we are on the new server and can uncripple things.

By the way, folks, we fixed the blue text under the profiles in the "green" format, just so you know!

Default (blue/gray), or green...........so where's the purple????

Just a question out of curiosity, what hosting company do you run Petoftheday.com out of?

We are moving to 1 and 1.

Hrm. From my experience, 1&1 wasn't that great. They had problems from the start with provisioning my shared hosting, then their tech support was absolute failure, so I just gave up on it.

If you're after shared hosting, I personally recommend Arvixe. My site's never gone down before, and their tech support is very speedy: http://www.arvixe.com/

And if you want a VPS, I've had hosting with Bluemile Cloud for.. two years now. My VPSs there went down once when they moved datacenters, a year and a half ago. http://bluemilecloud.com/

Thanks for your input, Colin. We are looking for a dedicated server, not VPS or any other kind of shared hosting.

Oh, Bluemile does dedicated server hosting as well. They own their own datacenters - both in Ohio (Cleveland and Columbus, respectively) - I believe they're both Tier 4 or at least Tier 3, and own their own fiber network in Ohio that links up to many of the biggest ISPs.

Yes, I sound like a salesperson. I really like them. Never had a single problem with them before.

Thanks for the advice.
