I don\'t know how many here follow the Total Model site but it is one of my faves and seems to be having issues. Does anyone have additional info? I was just on it 2 days ago with no problems. The paragraph below was posted at the site address.
Towards the end of last week, TotalModel.com was targeted in a damaging and extremely calculated attack by hackers. This is not the first time such attacks have been made on this website but the latest episode was perhaps the most sinister.
The event has raised questions about the security of the site. In conclusion, it is my opinion that TM may have become a little too large and sprawling for its own good. As a result I have decided to suspend the site with immediate effect until such time as I can reassess how best to take it forward.
Readers should not see this as a negative step. A change has been on the cards for some considerable time and the latest event has only served to rekindle my determination to do something about it. I am sure TotalModel.com will return, leaner, meaner and better equipped to carry a torch for the modelling community which has made this site its home for the last 4 years.
I thank you for your support and look forward to serving you again in the not too distant future.
