FYI. It may be possible soon to get our photos back.

If they do come back I'll only go back to retrieve my photos so I don't have to re-scan. I'm finished dealing with them, they are totally unreliable :mad .

That seems to be the intention. Allow people to get their pics back and then shut-down permanently.

I am getting really tired of every company going out these days blaming their downfall on Sep 11th. I know some industries were truly affected by this, but PhotoPoint? They were in trouble LONG before Sep 11th, their entire business model was flawed. Switching to become a pay service overnight and overcharging was also a pretty boneheaded move.

No shame...
