Owing to rising costs - in part,
it appears, due to a dramatic rise in "hot linking" to images
on the site, which results in excess bandwidth charges of £50 per month - we have
been forced to temporarily close down the main downthetubes.net web site.
downthetubes normally costs some £500 a
year to operate - in part to pay for hosting of the main site.
The site is run by volunteers. I cannot currently justify that
cost in the current economic climate.
Our news blog is still active and will continue here
at: http://downthetubescomics.blogspot.co.uk/
Our forum is still live at: http://downthetubes.ning.com - members welcome!
We are very grateful to our 2012-2013 sponsor
Panel Nine for their support,
without whom we would not have been able to continue publishing the site for the last 12 months.
