Since artists are not allowed to correct the deletions of their data and
the administrative portions of art.net appear to be functioning
correctly; it would appear that the artists are to blame for the poor
condition of their sites. Users do not realize that the ftp has been
closed.

Should art.net post an explaination of the situation for the user on the
first page:

http://www.art.net/

Or shut down the entire site?

What if a patron or possible client is judging an artist on design
merrit - what would they think?
