There's loads of stuff I got to know as a direct result of your listings (most notably, the spooky comics links ;) <br />Good show for persevering despite the underhandedness of some.Karl Stephanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589749383440341972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2292937198901528895.post-81699552526697543332010-01-22T02:24:05.481-08:002010-01-22T02:24:05.481-08:00I'm late to this news, but SO sorry about it! ...I'm late to this news, but SO sorry about it! Dark Side of the Net was one of the first sites I ever became really fond if, back in 1996 when I went to college and got my first internet access. Your site has always been such a spectacular resource, and I've found much of value through it over the years. I can't thank you enough for what you've done for me, so many other people, and the goth community as a whole over the time you've been maintaining the site. And if you manage to continue, I can only commend you. I know you've changed my life. I can only assume the same is true of others. So, thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2292937198901528895.post-6453219034644676472010-01-05T00:37:51.039-08:002010-01-05T00:37:51.039-08:00Hi Carrie.

We have had to deal with unscrupulous people uploading art that they borrowed from elsewhere on the web with no thought to the hard work the real artist did.<br /><br />You have put years of work and money into development of the user experence. And you deserve to get paid for your dedication to exelence in the future.<br /><br />The Dark Art,Goth,Horror and Halloween markets are huge and profitable. It took us a long time to find the path to profitablity so hang on it sounds like you are on th right track.<br /><br />We are about to release a total make over of our site in one week. As you know it's not cheap but it's all about the experience and the desire to make it better for our visitors.<br /><br />So keep up the great work.<br /><br />MikeDark Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13767280836372487160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2292937198901528895.post-40428478238544506942009-12-28T19:28:10.434-08:002009-12-28T19:28:10.434-08:00Thanks for your kind words, I appreciate it.

Change is good, but some of your old links really represented the "old" days before commercialism became the norm, and I miss them. People who came later to the goth scene have no idea what those links represented to us seasoned in the sensibility. I look forward to your new site and will visit it, but alas, the old one was a bastion of wonderful treasures now vanished.MXBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10835151716733003809noreply@blogger.com
