Look at the fishes!
Ok, we're back under way. It wasn't my fault. It wasn't my web host's fault. It wasn't vBulletin's fault. It was the fault of John Q. Hacker.
Someone figured out how to hack into one of the programs vBulletin runs upon,
pHp. The quick solution until pHp can be updated, is for every web host on Earth who uses pHp to turn off file uploads.
Sounds innocuous, right?
Well vBulletin is hard-wired to support things like people uploading file attachments, zip attachments, or uploading their own avatar images rather than having to host the image at AOL or somewhere else.
So this "security fix" broke vBulletin.
I went hunting on the vBulletin forum and stumbled upon the solution, to temporarily strip the file upload capabilities of vBulletin out.

I did have another choice, to turn on file uploads at feldoncentral.com and take our chances. I've chosen not to do this.
Please bear with it until pHp is updated and we can switch this feature back on.
In the mean time, attachments won't work. Please <A href="mailto:feldon@feldoncentral.com">e-mail</a> photos/snapshots and avatar images to me if you cannot host them yourself. I will put them on feldoncentral.com for you.
