That is the sad thing about the internet, one realizes that to keep everything, a lot of money is required, and sometimes not even that can save it, as enterprises go bankruptcy, etc.
I was hit when Imageshack decided to delete all pictures, it made me lose countless hours. Then, the biggest GI Joe forum in spanish language disappeared too, due to too much people frequenting the host, and the hosting people demanding an absurd amount of money (moreover, some problem prevented saving the data, and there was a LOT of data, reviews, diostories, catalogues, customs, etc). Much lost forever.
Since then, I upload all images into Blogger (owned by Google), and post all relevant info on my blog too, such as diostories, etc. Everything can go down, but if google goes down, probably the internet will too :) . And anything I like I save it, as tomorrow you never now if you'll be able to access it.
