Hello Everyone;
We regret to inform you that Kickassgfx.net will close on the 12th of May 2013. Few months back we have informed you about our plans and unfortunately now came this time to say goodbye.
Well, it is not exactly as bad as it looks like. We are closing KickassGFX but we’ll replace it with brand new site called: http://spookynet.org
The site will operate exactly the same way as kickassgfx was.
We’ll bring you the same portion of web design tools, graphic and updates every day making sure that you have everything you need in order to make your day easier & better.
Few details:
1. User accounts:
Unfortunately, we are not able to move the existing KickassGFX user accounts to our new site due to database incompatibility so new registration will be required. KickassGFX runs on very old engine where SpookyNet.org uses the latest one with more user protection. We really apologize for inconvenience.
2. Author Status
All members will get Member status by default as soon as they register on our site but if you would like to contribute and share your files with us – please e-mail us on: spookynet@live.com Of course – anyone interested must meet a few requirements like examples of your work on another sites etc… you know the drill… but we’re looking forward to see what you can do . It is also important to read our posting rules.
3. What about articles already posted on KickassGFX..?
Well, it is no problem… we have moved all articles to our new site so they are there with all original links. We haven’t changed anything and the only difference is that we couldn’t assign them to corresponding user accounts due to the user database incompatibility so all articles are being attached to one universal user “shareplus”. If you have any question about that or you’re concerned – please, do not hesitate to contact us.
4. Existing Editors/Authors
All Editor/Author accounts will be cancelled on the 10th of May. As from this date I would encourage you to register on Spookynet.org and send me your new user name plus the KickassGFX username to validate your posting status. All existing Editors/Authors will get their accounts automatically as soon as verified.
4. Traffic
From the 12 of May all the traffic will be re-directed from KickassGFX.net to the new site.
5. What about KickassGFX.net..?
Well… good question. To be honest I am not sure what to do with it, yet… KickassGFX was/is hosted on the server that is still valid for another 3 years and can accumulate few more sites so perhaps we’ll open another site if needed. I would appreciate your ideas and feedback as well – it could be very helpful.
Once again, thank you so much for your support and for being with us all this time. Feel free to express your opinion in the comment section.
…and of course enjoy our new site. All the best and good luck
