Unfortunately ZonePlace won't get a chance to see much of 2012 (Happy New Year's btw!)
Due to the lack of time that I am able to contribute to the site, ZonePlace will be closed.
The reason it is being closed down instead of letting it leave out it's final months (when hosting would expire and not be renewed) is that plans are being made to use the hosting resources we have for ZonePlace for something else. It is a new year and there are other plans/ideas/projects that will be followed through. The ZonePlace Media name will still be there as will some of the other sites that are hosted under ZonePlace.
These forums were the bread and butter of the whole ZonePlace project. However they have finally seen their end and it is now time to move on to newer things.
