Update: Nothing new, but a bunch of broken links fixed
19-12-2005
Festive season!
The first batch of this year's xmass artwork has arrived and can be admired here, with thanks to Bullsnake, Mary Ryan Bogard, Nathan Rork, Orochi Peach, Kat M. Lanier.
Intermediate update. Due to external issues, a bunch of the h-shrines are, or will be removed. All the characters who are supposedly younger than 18 are affected.
It's annoying, yes, but the alternative isn't really that much fun either. Thanks for your understanding. :)

Please read the FAQ and Email pages for a change in the artwork-acceptance policy.
The Groupboard is in need of a renewal of it's subscription. However, it costs about $110US to do that. If people feel like contributing to that, please let me know, otherwise it will expire.
Thumbnails will have their placement date added to them from now on. This does not affect already added images.
I have trouble with the way Deviantart.com works. Sure, it's a great site for displaying artwork, but it seems to be completely impossible to actually email artists. I was digging through the Starfire and Raven images send and contacted all the artists that I could identify - except the ones that host on Deviantart.com. Simply because I can't. I visited half a dozen sites hosted there, and not a single one has an email address listed. o_O;
If you can tell me where to contact these artists, I'd be much obliged: oliverat.deviantart.com, striderbadguy.deviantart.com, metal-dragon-kiryu.deviantart.com and fairyontheinside.deviantart.com.
I'm planning adding a few more shrines soon, like 'Starfire' and 'Raven' from Teen Titans. If you have any artwork of these two lying around, please send it. Also, if you have suggestions for additional shrines, drop me a line - always open to suggestions.
Sorry for the lack of updating last week, but I was at the Amsterdam Fantasic Film Festival helping them out as a volunteer - that was a complete blast. Met all sorts of intersting people (Director of Satan's Little Helper) and Claudio Simonetti with his band Daemonia. Had a great time. :)
To make up for the lack of additions, I'm adding three new shrines: Rei Ayanami (Finally!), Talim (Soul Calibur) and Kokoro (New Dead or Alive girl - thanks Rita!). The shrines are there, but much of the Bio data is still missing, so if you have artwork or missing data, please send it to the usual address!
Great news - there's a new mirror for your surfing pleasure. Thanks to Dormando at Rydia.net, you can now look at the site on both Ironmouse and cgshrines.rydia.net! Many thanks to helping out to Rydia.net - a webhosting service for artists.
All that was new this and last week is included in this update.
I've increased the number of images per page from 30 to 60, mainly because Asuka is getting way too many pages - as a result I'm going to return to filling pages from Art page 1 upwards. New art will not necessarily be posted on the last page anymore, so keep this in mind.
Only a partial update this week - I ran out of time before I ran out of things to add. Next week's update will be larger, so don't panic if you don't see your contribution. :)
Updated: Ayane Art 17 (Bullsnake - with more episodes of the funny Ayane comic. :)
