Note from webmaster

If you a regular visitor to the site (all two of you), no doubt you've noticed that the multimedia and video games stuff has been down for a couple of weeks now. This is due to NBCi fouling up. I guess the old adage "you get what you pay for" applies here. After a similar incident with Tripod a couple of months ago (along with other assorted messes over the years), I have decided to bite the bullet and pay for web space. Don't worry, I'm not going to start begging for money or anything, this is just more of a note to let you know that things are going to be sketchy with the site over the next week or so as I move it. Hopefully, this will clear up the nagging little problems I have been facing with the site over the past few months and I can concentrate on putting up more content rather than just trying to get the damn thing to work.

Just a FYI: the Tripod site will still be up -- I will be using it as a back up -- but to get the latest stuff, make sure to bookmark the hkfilm.net address.

7/5 - Just a note on the progress; I have the site's content and pictures (not multimedia) uploaded to the new server, but it will be a few days before the domain name directs to the new home, so no updates just yet.
