GingerScrap Site

September 10, 2009 by GingerScraps

Just letting you all know I have NO idea why HostMonster shut me down. I am working on it now.
I have heard stories in the past of them shutting sites down for using too much space- like for the gallery, store etc… But the reason I even signed up with HostMonster was because they advertise UNLIMITED space.
So until I get this figured out….. Check the blog for updates.
YUCK!!! I am soooo stressing!!!!!!!

Will up date this when I have an update.
