Brickshelf is now accessable through http://www.brickshelf.com/ or https://www.brickshelf.com/ (you may see a certificate error). At the top of the page in red text reads:
Notice: Brickshelf will be shutting down on 2007/07/31.
Please save your files to your computer.
Everyone who hasn’t backed up their files already, DO SO NOW.
EDIT (AB): Bob Kojima has created a tool that can back up files from Brickshelf. You can download the Zip file from BZPower (thanks for the tip, Kelly!) here (318 KB).
EDIT 2 (AB): Jim DeVona has created a backup tool for Mac OS X. You can download it and read instructions on how to run it in Jim’s post on LUGNET. You’re a lifesaver, Jim!
EDIT 3 (LB/AB): Interested parties have begun backing up important folders other than their own while they can. There are threads on classic-castle, classic-space, FBTB Forums, and Forum 0937 to do this as systematic as possible. Thanks to Bruce for the heads up. If this is happening on other communities as well, please let us know.
