Site hacked?

Has the site been hacked? There is a picture at the top of the screen with a hotmail e-mail adress.

ETA: the picture is called al-hack.gif and is located at the top-level directory.

Try not to give them ideas, astrogirl. But yes this is very likely to be a hack.

Sorry. Someone should alert John ASAP. Does someone have his cell-phone number?

Yes, this is wierd. I came on and was confused. Doesn't seem like too big of a deal, but I really have no clue. Hopefully it's just that pic that can go away with ease.

EDIT: Ok, for me the whole front page is just a picture. However I can go back and see this thread, but only this thread...

Me too. This is scary.

ETA, I can see other threads, but not the forums page...

I just popped in, too. If you go to the main site you just get a bigger version of the hacked photo above. Damn it.
