The new domain name? Wow, that was quick. Just registered it 20 minutes ago.

Ever since last year DNS propagation takes 30 minutes these days, no longer 24 hours :gift:

Which account are you hosting this from?

Still @ torgushost.com for hosting. Can't argue with 80GB bandwidth and 100GB disk space for free :) Though I do wish their servers were a bit faster. Seem to be a little on the week side.

Yeah, I know. It was just the limits they gave me. I bought a 100GB disk and they put it in the server for me. Otherwise it would have been 20:80. I use it for archiving dev projects, etc., too, so there's no need to match bandwidth and diskspace.

At my office we changed the IP address of our mail server last Thursday (8 days ago) and added three new ones, and it took a week for the change to fully propagate. Couldn't hurt to wait.

Love the new domain name :)

Hey, if you wanna deal with the beta code, you're more than welcome to. Like I've said, a lot of the admin is still manual work until I get my ass into gear and finish the interface for it. :p

True that.

Right now it doesn't matter which site you use. pics.priceyoursite.com just points to pictars.com's home directory, so they're the same site, virtually.

I would start it now. New domain propagation completes very quicky right now with 99% of all isps. Anything over 3-5 hours after registration is fine, 12 hours would be the max that I would wait.
