    After the outbreak of the war between Russia and Ukraine, alphacontrols has been in the state of stopping updating. I don’t know how the developer is now, and there is no news about him on the forum. May God bless him and the Ukrainian people.

    Hello. Thank you for your wishes. I’m well, but still can’t develop the package now and hope for understanding. I hope all will be changed after the win of Ukraine.

    No contact for months, I am starting to worry if we have any more AlphaSkins development. But the small ones are my worries when you think about what is happening in Ukraine.

    The alphaskins.com domain name is about to expire. I hope you can come back. God bless you and the Ukrainian people.

    The domain has been extended to 2024-03-11.

    I guess that shows they are still alive and, hopefully, well.

    It will do it automatically as long as the provider receives the money. So sadly nothing can be concluded from that.

    The money came from someone… As this is a one man business (Sergey called it a personal project a while ago) it’s unlikely to have been renewed by anyone else. But it was renewed back in January…

    Current status is certainly unknown.

    I maintain several websites and I know that the payments are automatically charged to the credit card. It does not require any action from the site owner as long as the payments go to the service provider.

    Me too – yet I have to authorise each renewal. Not every provider does it automatically.

    In any case, if the credit card is active and payment went through then someone is making payments to it. If payments stop then the credit card issuer is likely to decline further payments, aren’t they?

    Anyone tried calling the number on the domain’s whois? I hope Sergey is ok.

    It requires auto-renew to be turned on in your renewal and billing settings. But yes, not all service providers may have such an option.

    Thank you, I’m Ok and preparing new v17.00 Stable release today.
    There will not be new features, unfortunately. Only bugfixes.
    And old versions of the Delphi (older than XE2) will not be supported anymore, because it’s too hard, for some reasons.

    Thank God that you are still alive. I hope that this insane war will end quite soon. All the best to you and the Ukrainian people for the future.
