Root SS Simply Stunning Gone?

Anyone know what happened to ChevyNo1 ssandroid.com is gone. I would gladly host the site for him I have unlimited storage and bandwidth from my provider and may even be able to get his domain back for him if he is still interested and out there. I love the ROM run it on both of mt OG Droids. I have far too much into this lateset one and I have noticed Backups and Restores never work the way they are supposed to something always gets lost in the shuffle.
 
I noticed this yesterday when I went to check for updates. Haven't heard anything from him. Thought I would check on droidforums.net and his postings are still there linking to ssandroid. Also, nothing I could find on twitter either.
 
I just checked in ROM manager and his ROMs and kernels arent showing up there either. I just tried out SS a few days ago too.

This has been going on for a while though. I had a hell of a time trying to find Chevyno1's kernels. Hopefully this isnt a permanent thing because he makes some impressive stuff

Thats the one i tried. Pretty sure its the most recent but its probably the one you are already using.
 
Yea, but even the rom for the Droid X was posted on the ssandroid website. It was the "Halloween special" he release both roms on the same day.
 
you might as well move on to something that is updated more regularly like steel droid or lithium mod. OR if you feel like having features then flash UD 2.4 or CM 6.1. Just a suggestion.
 
MIUI is in a very different class of ROM than everything else out there, it's to be expected that it's getting updated all the time. But yeah, honestly, you have to change your ROM of choice as new releases come out, and Cyanogen, UltimateDroid, and the MIUI team seem to be the most active right now, which means you won't be left behind if you go with them.
 
Except changing ROMS is a major hassle no back up works exactly like its supposed to and there is still too much crap getting lost every time. The battle.net Authenticator for example never transfers well. Plus the different ROMS have so many different versions I am honestly thinking of going back to STOCK and just writing my own theme changes for it. Chevy got back to me after i sent him a tweet about hosting and he said he would let me know if he needed it. SS so far has been the nicest ROM and the only one that seems to upgrade decent. Had too many troubles with everything else and then even using TI backup was a nightmare because of the major difference in versions and locations, one ROM has it in sys one doesn't etc it just never worked properly. I use my phone way too much to be setting everything back up once a week. Until I get a second phone or add a line just to screw with I can't afford the hassle.
 
He posted on Twitter he's been swamped with work in his personal life. You know how that goes. He hasn't stopped yet, he's probably going to do something with Gingerbread with the source gets released.... Simply Stunning 4.9 is his latest....And I do agree his ROMs are amazing.

Another rom you might look at is Succulent Desire v 7.0, which is available from Droid Concepts over of droidforums.net. It's distributed as a themed rom, and regardless of whether you choose Atlantis Blue, SHINE or one of the other ones, you're getting a solid, stable rom with some pretty good theming.

Also, Woodyman (the rom creator) is just about ready to release v 8.0, so you won't have long to wait for a major upgrade. :)
