I was down and out for a few days there but now I'm up and running again.  My server was having some hardware issues and now it appears that they are fixed (hopefully).  I think I lost a post or two but I can deal with it.

Side note:  As time allows I'm going to begin my first real try and a dotText skin.  My wife spoke of it on her blog but the skin will be for her.  I've thought about it for myself in the past but never did it.  She's got a greak looking design now I've just got to implement it.
