If you want your page listed here just EMAIL them on in and I'll put em up! Also let me know if you find any dead links. I just spent a couple of hours going through and getting rid of everything that didnt work or was obsolete. It's funny how quickly these sites can die off...but that what happens when you're dealing with a scene where people come and go so often. ah well... I'm still here!
