They made off with the money and the photos and now they want to sell them back to you! I copied their crap and pasted it here.Updated: Wed Feb 13 13:48:37 AST 2002 PhotoPoint.com is currently offline. Please check back here (www.photopoint.com) for further developments. I would like to assure people that their photos have not been lost, and are safe. However, due to the bandwidth, hardware, and labour costs, we are unable to put the site online. Pantellic Software is insolvent, and had no choice but to close it's offices and lay off all employees on December 15th.
