Hi Jose,

Here is the payment completion to the previous question.  

I'm very sorry that the new policy of "google answers" prevents us
from using their forum here for projects in the future.  As you know,
I've successfully used your programming services here many times in
the past and I would like to continue using your services, but
google-answers new policy now prevents that from ever happening here
again.

You stated Google's policy prevents me from being a customer of yours
on another outside forum, but what about other people?  Is there any
reason why you could not do work for other people outside of
google-answers?  As you know from working on my affiliate program, I
have a business partner that has never hired you here.  Can you work
for him through other outside forums?  Let me know.

As discussed, the $100 tip is payable only on completion and
google-answers prevented the programming job from being completed. 
Also, as I feel less than 20% of the total project was done, 20% X
$75.00 = $15.00.  I'm including a $5.00 tip as what you did do, was
excelent, as always.  I sincerely regret that you could not finish the
project here or on another forum - I tried.

Thank you for past services rendered.

Hello, stevep:
  I don't think we can contact outside Google Answers by any means,
I'm very sorry for that, but that's the guidelines we both must
follow, so I suggest you to use Rentacoder.com, there is a lot of
developers there and I'm sure they will be useful to you.

Regarding the 20% I thought it was calculated using the full price of
the question, that is $75 + $100 = $35, but don't worry and thanks for
your efforts to keep using my services.

I hope you find someone to continue the job.

Regards.

Hi Jose,

My web hosting company just went out of business with no notification.
 Do you happen to have a copy of any parts of my web site?  I had
regular automatic backups to a different server, but that back-up
company also used servers from the same server company.  My web site
is gone....   :(

Hello, stevep:
  Yes, I have some files, I don't know if it's the full website, but I
think is better than nothing, are you aware that I will need to post
the link here and it will be available to anyone? Once you tell me you
have downloaded it, I will remove it.

Regards.

The computer company turned the servers on for 24 hours to allow
everyone time to download their web site files, so I did not loose
everything.

Thanks for your offer to help.
