Is www.mentalimages.com website dead?

[ActionArt]

This website seems to have been down for about a month now:

http://www.mentalimages.com

Can anyone else see it? Have they just blocked me personally

The only other sort of official page I can find is this one which is just a scrambled mess which is pretty much unreadable:

http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvidia-mental-ray.html

Weird. Hope their working on MR harder than they are their website.

I tried it and it isn't working for me either, lately alot of web sites I come across have been neglected, maybe they are doing a internet cleansing

So it IS a conspiracy!

I tried it from home, office, and a couple public connections so this whole area is blacked out. Oddly, I can go to the forum so I guess I'll inquire there...

I don't really need anything I was just curious as to why it would be down for so long. Maybe a key server got flooded on the east coast or something.

Black Friday .... gone shopping

the site doesn't load for me.

[ActionArt]

Ya strange, loads for some, not for others, the forum loads but not the main site. Weird.

It's strange indeed...
I have just taken the time to visit several of the online "website up/down" tools. And strangely enough even they seem to disagree. This one, for instance, gets me an "up", while this one states it's down.
Could be country/continent specific. Here in the Netherlands it can be accessed without problems. But as you're able to access their forum, I would worry too much about their main website as IMHO there's not very much to see there, anyway. (And as you are able to access their forum you might want to mention this problem there as well.)

You could try accessing it through a webbased proxy...

[ActionArt]

Interesting. Maybe they have something against Canada ;)

I don't really care at all about the site (wasn't that great as you say) except I'm hoping it doesn't indicate that they're folding up MR operations all together and that's the end of the line. Probably not but it is odd.

can happen I think when there is a DNS update that needs to propagate worldwide

True, could be.
