    What happened to www.cameraeccentric.com?

    Subject says it all. That useful site seems to have vanished.

    Oh no! I see what you mean. I hope this is some temporary problem...

    Go to the Wayback Machine (Internet Archive) and plug in the following URL:

    www.cameraeccentric.com/info.html

    Click on one of the snapshots. Was able to bring up one of the Wollensak catalogs that way.

    Click on every one of the catalogs and save as much to your hard drive as you can.

    Weird, this site reports it as down, but I can still reach it, even after clearing my browser cache. What are you seeing on you end?

    Funny though, LFPF keeps crashing on me while trying to post to this thread.

    It returns a valid IP address (92.242.140.21), meaning that the domain name is valid.
    The domain name registration expires July 28th of this year.

    But it fails a PING of that IP address, meaning its server is down.
    This is probably a temporary thing, perhaps a hardware failure.
    Or perhaps they failed to pay their hosting service bill.

    If you believe you can, or you believe you can't... you're right.

    Mike, that's interesting. http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ still says its down for everyone.

    About cameraeccentric on archive.org. I tried perhaps six (6) different save dates there, always got the front page with the "info" page and, therefore, the catalogs behind it, not saved.

    I use archive.org to back up pages referenced in my cook book, have found that it doesn't always put complete sites away when asked. Pages, usually, whole sites, rarely if ever.

    If you follow the link I posted, it goes directly to the info page, and I can view catalogs and their pages. Trying to get to the info page from the front page doesn't work. I tried that first.

    Using the Wayback machine I was able to open the info page for Sept. 2012:

    https://web.archive.org/web/20161018....com/info.html

    some of the more recent backups don't include that page, there might be a more recent page but I didn't check them all.

    Isn't Dan a member here, or is he on APUG? Has anyone thought to PM or email him to ask? He's also rather visible on Facebook.
