What happened to the main page?

Is there any particular reason why I'm getting a message that says 'domain has expired' when I try to go to the TRO home page? I had to use Google to get to the forums.

Did Josh forget to renew the domain name, or is it just a glitch?

Kayla, I'm glad someone noticed!!

As far as a glitch or did I forget... well, a little of both. I had today down as the day the domain expired... rather than the 13th, when it actually did. This was a day off I had planned for about two weeks where I would answer no phone calls from work, or anyone else requesting my time for good, bad or otherwise and to devote to the site.... as always, things got in the way but I did manage to make a few changes to the main page for uploading and renewed the domain. Thank goodness they give you a few days window period before it goes back on the market... I can only imagine a select individual out there creeping waiting to scoop up the domain *its*elf to spread their own quirky version of Teddy Ruxpin. I'm glad my provider didn't let that happen!

Anyway, I will have a couple of other cool announcements to make soon... I'm taking Teddy Ruxpin to Facebook!

Good. I have to admit, it gave me quite a scare when I punched in the address and got the domain expiration page.

Main page is up now.... I need to go through the site and remove references to the latest BackPack incarnation of Teddy still being around and then begin our campaign to bring him back yet again. It's been several years since I've been in this mode. Feels like 1999 all over again... bittersweet, for sure.

Still having problems with Google Chrome loading the site correctly... seems to be a lot of bugs. I'd suggest anyone visiting regularly view with Firefox or IE instead.

I see it now.

HUZZAH!!!

Wow! I am glad to see that was all that had happened. I had wondered the other day if the site was shut down.
