    OP is officially open again. I apologize for the long down time. Long story short: Someone hacked the database and I had to recreate the database tables using a backup file and then recode and update the entire site. The bad news is: The backup I restored was from May 2nd, so some posts have been lost. But it's still better than losing everything imo.

    They actually used the FFOWA forums to get in, so I've spent a lot of time trying to get them updated and going again too. It's been a long two weeks.. But hey, what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger.

    The solution to FilePost that I promised everyone is finally here. One word: Attachment. You can now easily attach files to your posts - there is so many advantages to this... For one thing, files are linked to posts which is a lot easier than sorting through hundreds of files manually. We also know exactly who uploads what and when, and I've compiled restrictions for malicious files.

    You can attach up to 3 files per post and attach 1 file per PM. The file size limit for posts is 4MB (the only reason it should be anywhere near this is for Flash movies, but even then you should be able to compress the file some). Either way, make sure to give it a try and let me know what you think.

    While updating OP I added several new features that will prevent the distortion of the pages etc etc you don't even care ;)

    Tons of new avatars have been added to the gallery too (Anime, FF Advent Children, Devil May Cry, KOF, Naruto, Skies of Arcadia, Soul Calibur 2, World of Warcraft, etc) so check those out if you're interested.

    It is good to see the orange and gray again.. Yeah bitches, we're back!!11

    Good to see that you guys are back up again as well but I think you should have taken OP first, considering the only connection between us in the first place was Gerad. Thanks for helping us get back up though! We appreciate it greatly.

    EDIT: Just thought I'd note that OWA is at http://ffowa.openpost.net now if any OP members were wondering, the only one I can think of is Tatlin.

    OWA wasn't too hard to get back up because I didn't have to reconstruct the database tables. But I'm just glad that everything is finally up again.

    And obviously if anyone's noticed, I removed the message icons because they were causing problems.
