| | | | | Oh no. Wherever will humanity store Geekshelf's 5 billion images of poorly drawn anime fan art for future generations. A truly great loss indeed.

| | | | | | (...) What the? I wasn't expecting this? Do you define these files (hosted by geekshelf) as poor anime fan art? (URL) anyone have any reasons why such a site would decide to shut down on such short notice? (Kevin, I would prefer you charge us for a (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | | (...) I agree with Jon here. Most of the stuff on Geekshelf is of NO interest to me whatsoever. If people want a free site to host their images, there's plenty of those out there. If Geekshelf is drawing upon resources for Brickshelf, then I don't (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

Those free sites are great for small amounts of html and a few images, but provide nothing close (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)

| | | | | | Jon, I agree that geekshelf has too much anime but I disagree that geekshelf is not a valueable resource.

And she posts some very nice pics, and I've googled the hell out of it and can't find anything else of her. Oh and by nice I mean "How-you-doin" (...)
