Sounds bad. I keep local copies of anything I upload on the internet, but a lot
of good stuff on there will have been lost if this is genuine. I don't think it
was hacked, as the Zerostuds forum went down the same way last year.

The general image hosting sites like Photobucket or Flickr seem to be decent
alternatives. Maj would be a direct replacement, but as someone remarked earlier
I wouldn't trust that site to be reliable after this.

I remember Kevin saying on Zerostuds that BS cost "thousands of dollars" per
month to operate, but the ad revenue covered it well enough to turn in a small
profit, so this couldn't have been due to server costs either.

Just been to Brickshelf and it reports Brickshelf has discontinued operation. We apologize for any inconvenience. Maj still seems to be up Tim (17 years ago, 14-Jul-07, to lugnet.general) !!
