The Launch Pad


All aboard for Disney, Space Ghost, and Reboot sites, other fun stuff,
Other Site I Manage, Internet resources, and search engines!


Disney Afternoon Pages

DAFT Hatchlings - The home page of the late Disney Afternoon File Time mailing list. Look in the archive - there are years' worth of fan fiction, fan art, and other goodies.

Disney's Official Web Site - Updated constantly.

The Center for Volatile Creative Types - Home to many weird and wonderful things. Not overpoweringly Disney these days, but no less weird and wonderful for that.


 Space Ghost Pages

Ghost Planet Transcript Central - Where you can find transcripts of all the "Space Ghost Coast to Coast" episodes, plus other things like chat transcripts.

The Daily Ghost Planet - has the latest news, rumors, butter, and cheese about the denizens of Ghost Planet Industries.

The Renegade Chickens page has some great Shockwave flash animations, plus a Space Ghost calendar.

The Sisto Files has some very strange and entertaining... stuff.

redsugar's Sorcerer Page - check out her fan art.


Reboot Sites

Julia_Cat's ReBoot Corner - One of the last remaining "big dog" sites, the Corner has a huge archive of fanfic, art, et cetera, plus a very lively message board community.

ReBoot Mayhem - Another great info source with a very lively message board. Also has a fan art and fiction archives and music videos. Except that it's currently "on hiatus for redesign," and that almost invariably means a site isn't coming back, but I can't bring myself to delete the link just yet.


Other Fun Stuff

Least I Could Do - 6-day-a-week webcomic by Ryan Sohmer and the incomparable Lar DeSouza.

Penny Arcade - If you're a video game geek you know what this is. If you're a video game geek and don't know what this is, click that link NOW.  You'll thank me.

Kevin and Kell by Bill Holbrook is the first daily comic strip syndicated solely in cyberspace. Furry humor and net.geekery - how can anyone resist that combination?

Sabrina Online by Eric W. Schwartz is updated with a few strips each month. Another of my favorites.

As If! a webcomic about two girls growing up in the eighties. That could have been me in there...

8-Bit Theater - An incredibly popular and rightfully so webcomic based on Final Fantasy.

Snopes: Urban Legends Reference Pages - Plenty of information here, both valuable and entertaining. Will Bill Gates send you $500 just for forwarding a chain letter? Find out why or why not. This is one of my daily-visit sites.

Overclocked Remix has hundreds of remixes of video game music, ranging from uber-retro to current. Want to hear the Pac-Man theme done reggae style, or put lyrics to the Legend of Zelda music? How about a dozen variations of all kinds on the Final Fantasy themes? Right here!

Otaku World - KiSS dolls. More KiSS dolls than you could ever play with, and more added all the time.

The Onion The Onion is a satirical news site. It's very funny. It's not for the kiddies, the humor impaired,or the easily offended.


Other Site I Manage

ISPA, Inc. - Where I have worked for well over a decade. I created the site back in 1996 and maintain it now. Caveat: I did the main company site only. The divisions do their own sites.

ISPA Info-Mation - A less formal, newsletter-ish site intended for the employees of ISPA. I have more artistic freedom with this one whan I did with the official company site... or can you tell?

Peachtree Kiwanis - I designed and maintain the Peachtree Kiwanis site. It went up in 1999, and I've kept it up ever since.

Last Kiss Comics - I created this in 2001, and maintain it. I do this one for free 'cause John Lustig is a friend of mine and Last Kiss comics are just damned cool!

LambdaPsiPhi.com - my Rocky Horror cast. Designed, maintain, yadda yadda.

Open Directory Project - I didn't create anything, but I do manage the Darkwing Duck and ReBoot categories. Hey, it's website work!


Internet Resources

Symantec - Everyone on the Internet should have this place bookmarked. Got a concern about a virus, worm, or whatever other bug might have infiltrated your computer? All the info you'd ever need, including how to get the crap off your system, is in this site's "Security Response" section.


If you're considering making your own web site, please visit Web Pages That Suck to find out what mistakes NOT to make. This is a very informative site, showing pages that suck, and explaining in detail just why they suck so you can avoid making the same mistakes. Plus, is's also loads of fun.


SimTel is a good page to download all sorts of stuff. This collection of shareware and freeware contains things from mundane file management utilities to fractal generators and icon authors. You're certain to find something useful here.

Ftp.cdrom.com contains lots and lots and LOTS and LOTS of things. Utilities, files, games... I won't even try to list what-all they have here. I hope you have a fast modem, because if you visit this place you'll probably spend a lot of time downloading. Warning: it's cryptic.


Search the 'Net and the WWWeb

Tired of Yahoo's linkrot and refusal to add new sites? Check out the Open Directory Project. It's like Yahoo, only up to date, responsive, and useful!


Alta Vista is another good service. Not only can you search the WWWeb, you can also search for messages in Usenet newsgroups! Ain't modern technology wonderful?
Search the Web or the News Groups
Display results Compact or Detailed


Google. THE search engine these days! I'd put a search blank here if I knew how to do it.
