Howdy!

Rubberslug finally has a home and is fully 
operational at http://www.rubberslug.com.

What is Rubberslug, you ask?

Rubberslug is a grand scheme to take over the 
world, one cel collector at a time. The first 
part of this master plan allows cel collectors 
new and old to create cel galleries online. 

Creating a free cel gallery at Rubberslug gives 
you some nifty features you can’t get by hacking 
out a page on another free webpage service:

* No need for HTML. Rubberslug is entirely menu-
driven, although advanced users can mix in HTML 
at will.
* Built from the the ground up to support cels. 
Record sketches, layers, multiple images, and 
background information without missing a beat.
* Flexible and simple templates allow all sorts 
of color and graphic customization (again, 
without any HTML).
* Password protect your cels to show off to your 
friends while avoid those inane “Hey, how much do 
you want for that?” questions.
* Receive feedback from your visitors without 
ever having to reveal your e-mail address.
* Interactive wishlist allows adding a wishlist 
item and an example image as simple as point and 
click. Rearrange and prioritize your wishes 
through simple drop-down menus.
* ... with still more nifty things in the 
laboratory undergoing testing!

The next phase of this plan will be put into 
action sometime in the next few weeks. We (that’s 
you, me, and everyone else reading this) are 
going to start building a database of cel 
availability for every show that we collect. 
Rubberslug will act as a neutral third party to 
note both the rarity and relative price of cels 
(like Wizard, but with very broad ranges), down 
to specific characters, costumes, and situations. 
Look for it soon!

For now, have fun creating a cel gallery on 
Rubberslug. If you want, just mess around and 
create some junk. Just create something; you’ll 
be my new best friend.

(This should open in a new window so you can go 
back to the forum later.)

*** A big THANK YOU goes out to all the 
pioneering  folks that helped test this system.
