I started on GOL in 2013, found this one in 2014 and was more active on GOL, and ended up here during one of the bigger downtimes from 2018-2019. Too bad as I had some pictures there I don't have on here

Surprisingly the domain and hosting is still up, it's just a configuration issue with the forum software. I was a bit more active on GOL back when it had more activity but started transitioning here after it had a few major extended outages. I think I backed up most of my pictures and the descriptions anyway.

I did have some duplicates on both sites, but the majority of the stuff I put on there I didn't put here.. I was purposely trying to create/keep separate galleries for different things.
I don't bother with it anymore even though I have more photos I could post there.

It may have a chance that the hosting site needs to be reboot or something like that :-\

It originally went down due to a config error with the hosting still active, given the lack of attention to fixing it I would have been surprised if someone was still paying for the hosting. Without payment I guess the host took the site down.

Looks like the galleryoflights.org domain name is still valid until 2/8/2026, after then without payment to renew it, it might go back to registrar and resold...which is why you sometimes see long dead websites reappear with completely different content.

Sometimes it just takes time and concerted effort to learn something new. Don't give up before you get there.

Correct, LG was the one with the .net domain, not GoL.

Sad to hear, but I'm not surprised at all.

This is part of the reason I stopped even bothering to update my gallery there, even though I continued to collect photos for it.
(guess I won't ever need to worry about editing & posting those .LOL. )

This is what it shows for me. I had an Account on GoL but I rarely posted on it. this is the site i accessed the most when I became aware of internet forums and so I joined up here. I am also a part of a European/UK based ,ighting forum but I forget what it is called. I just am not super capable of keeping track of multiple sites for the same interest lol... Attention Deficit...

@HomeBrewLamps was the uk based lighting site you're talking about ukastle, lamp room or ATL? Some of the sites may be here.
