I haven't stopped by the site for about a week. Today I popped in and they're gone. Anyone have any details?

The new page says, the domain name expired yesterday. Who can be so stupid, please! I know why I unregistered luckyoliver in time...

It sure doesn't inspire much confidence, does it.. I'm not making anything over there and I can't get into the larger stock agencies, so I'm thinking of pulling everything once they pay up on their domain registration and giving up on stock altogether for awhile.

I've been doing OK on fotolia. Try them. I had the same stuff on there as LO and it's been selling. Of course, the payout is more in line with Shutterstock, about .33 per credit.

This thing is funny. I remember back in the beginning of the internet, the same thing happened to Microsoft (actually hotmail.com). Some guy really needed to read his hotmail account, so he paid for the registration. News Story

Microsoft thanked him by sending him a check, so he ebayed it for charity.

Funny story.

The LO rep on microstockgroup made an announcement saying it should be taken care. Something about a mixup w/ their domain registrations (no way, we couldn't tell!)

He said they would be putting an entry about the situation in their blog.

I just checked the site, seems to be fine.
