Help! I'm having a problem with phpFanBase! Will you please take a look at it and help me fix it?

I'm sorry, but no. I simply don't have the time to offer free support for phpFanBase anymore. If you need help with it, please post at the CodeGrrl Forums with your problem, and hopefully someone there will be able to help you with it.

Who have you been hosted with in the past? What did you think of them?

Lets' see. I've been through my share of hosts over the years! First there was HostRocket. Cheap package, loads of space and bandwidth, but a crap host. Bad customer service, and they suspended my site on 3 seperate occasions for taking up too much resources (with MT) without giving me any kind of warning or explanation. After I left them, I was hosted with DreamHost for a few months, via my good friend Beth. They were pretty good, although I found the interface and the way the server worked hard to get used to, after having been on a Cpanel server for years. After that, I moved to UnitedHosting for a few months, while I was starting up my own web hosting business. They were absolutely awesome. Great service, nice guys, a bit pricey, but then again, you do really get what you pay for. And lastly I moved Nothing Less onto my own dedicated servers via TwistyBot!

What did you study to become a web designer?

Actually, I never really studied to be a web designer, I am entirely self-taught. I have books on more difficult things like PHP and MySQL, but everything else (XHTML, CSS, Photoshop, etc) I taught myself via online tutorials and just a lot of experimenting. I did go to college for two years, where I studied Media & Information Managment, but that didn't teach me how to be a web designer at all.

Are you a boy or a girl?

A girl. Actually, I already answered this question in the sidebar. See the little heading that says "The Girl"? Kind of gives it away, doesn't it? :)

Where did you buy your domain?

I originally bought it from HostRocket, whom I was hosted with back then, and moved it over to GoDaddy when I moved hosts.
