There were some issues with the server we were hosted on but, thanks to the support team at Netnibble who’ve worked non-stop to put things right, we’ve had a full (and free) restore from the backups they’ve been taking automatically for us, and we’re now being hosted on a brand new swanky 4 CPU server with heaps of bandwidth and disk space.

Every cloud has a silver lining huh?! :D

Already there is the entire DOT CD 25 with some fantastic photos of scenery from Italy, Portugal, Spain, the USA, Switzerland and the UK, and we’ve also started adding some more fantasy art albums.

Stay tuned, because there’s a lot more to come!

First up is a small fantasy art collection by Carlos Cartagena - We’ve got some more to add over the next few days, so keep checking back! ;)

Thanks to Roger for helping to compile some of the galleries we’ll be adding soon.

We’re changing the engine that runs the site in the background to make things easier for ourselves and to give the site a more uniform look and feel, along with a move to a swanky new server (thanks Netnibble!) giving us more processor power, bandwidth, memory and disk space (yes, this last bit means a lot more galleries!

We hope that you like the new look - The old site is still there, but will be phased out very soon.

They always have me wishing to jump onto a plane and fly off somewhere ;)

Take a look at what I mean - We’ve added part of DOT CD 25 into the galleries for you to take a look at.

We’re also making a start on the Celebrity Galleries now - First up is a personal favorite, Miss Jessica Alba, although there’ll be plenty more to come!

Again, it was created by a group of “scanners” who were moved by the disaster and wished to create this series as a mark of respect to all those affected by the Tsunami.

1.72″ (4.3cm) of ice covered everything within a 50 mile radius of Republic, knocking out power to 142,000 homes and businesses for days. Some then went on to be without power for up to 3 weeks!

We also added one of our favorite scan collections “SAT - Scanners Against Terror” in permanent memory of all those who perished or lost loved ones and friends in the attacks on the USA on 9/11 2001.
