What do you think it means?

Perhaps I'm a bit slow but my only thought when I clicked on the link was, Hmm... It appears that the picture was taken with 2 light sources approximately 90 degrees to each other.

The last few days all you got was a message about being down. For maintenance I believe.
Earlier today it was a address not found HTTP 404 message. With the www.accessha.com/forums/ and it still does as I type.
Now a goodbye maybe. :'(
So maybe they folded. Hope not; but who knows right now.
The www.accessha.com.  Does indeed give what looks like a goodbye message.

Access Home Automation
2005-2008

When they put a date under your name.... the later date is generally the end. I think it means... they don't plan on being around in 2009.

There is now a link on the site to a YouTube Video. Maybe a indication; in a round about way. Of what is going on.  ???

Yep.  Pretty plain explanation if you ask me!

He was going to shut down a year (or two?) ago due to lack of funds and lack of time to manage the boards.

Several of us here made various offers, from simply volunteering to help manage the boards to actually buying the site from him.

All were turned down, but at least he decided to continue the board himself.

Sadly, it looks like this time it might well be final.   :'(

Sad to lose a valuable resource.

Yes some of the ' How To ' Tutorials where very well documented and a great source of help.
Guess all that is now also gone.  ???

I was trying to follow a link for a modification I was/am interested in.... when I found the Site was/is down. The Tutorials are a real loss.

Gone completely. accessha.com is now in a domain holding area of a company [Go Daddy] that registers domains.  ???  :'(
