I just went on there too, looks like the domain for littleariel.com by LittleAriel is no longer in use or hasn't been renewed in a while :( |

Hi all, Sorry about that  I had to renew. Auto renew did not work. Just got it back up yesterday  Unfortunately, so many of the links are dead now. Sure wish I had the time to update, but I will try little by little (no pun intended)  Between computer crashes and FTP issues, I've been strugling to get everything back. Finally able to update the site as I need to so that's progress. Yup, I'm still here, once in a while  Have an AWESOME Ariel day!! Mike |

Hi, LittleAriel! It's okay! Yaay! Aw, that's not good. I'd help you find links to stuff or update the news section if I could. I'm glad you're still here!  -Sage |

It is nice to hear the site has returned.
I am curious, what kind of backup procedures do you have for the website data?
Is all the coding and assets stored on an external hard drive or DVD-ROM?

It is nice to hear the site has returned. I am curious, what kind of backup procedures do you have for the website data? Is all the coding and assets stored on an external hard drive or DVD-ROM? Thanks! Before my computer crashed, (the one I used for LittleAriel.com), I backed the entire hard drive up on a portable hard drive using an ISO image creator program which allows you to create an "ISO" image of the entire drive, thereby effectively copying everything over. Problem is, that when your computer crashes and your mother board is affected in the crash such as mine was, you will loose all your programs because they simply won't work any more (the mother board has all your permissions). So unless you can find the exact computer, you won't be able to boot up with your crashed hard drive (if it's not the hard drive that actually caused the crash), which was the case for me. Luckily, I backed everything up as an ISO image a few years ago, and have ALL my files, (just not the programs). The program that I used to update the site by uploading files is called Crystal FTP Pro. Fortunately, I found an old email which had my purchase activation code and I was able to get it set up again, so I can now upload updates to the site as I need to. Also, all the files are also residing at my hosting service, so even if I lost all my LittleAriel data, I could still get it all back from the server (which is what generates the pages of the site through http). If you've made it all the way through this long winded techno babble explanation, and actually understood it all, your are the bomb!! and you deserve a BIG Ariel kiss Have a GREAT Ariel evening  Mike |

LittleArielYes, I understood it. I've never done iso imaging myself, because It's a mite finicky. When I have to backup websites, I just copy the file structure (folder, images, other assets) as they are organised on the website and then either burn them to a DVD or store them on an independent hard drive (one that isn't part of the computer and is connected by a USB cable). Usually both if I can do it. Then if the files get corrupted, I just reload the last saved working archive back to the server.
