I'm sorry to hear of this. I just started a website of my own, though I deliberately limited it to exhibiting my artwork. I flirted with the idea of doing an Indiana Jones website of my own, but realized that the work that would be involved would take up ALL my time -- the amount of material I have is enormous, and I would have difficulty merely CATALOGING it, much less putting them on a website. Not to mention, I'm not savvy in programming html yet.

That is the primary reason why I felt it would be best for me to make my contribution through an alliance with Micah's site. He does all the work, and I simply bug him with an idea every now and then.

Unless you're REALLY dedicating all of your time to the site, I must say that it is unfortunate that other people in your life can not appreciate your hobbies. I myself grew up with a love of movies and art, and because my parents encouraged me to follow my interests, I am able to make a living from them, at least in part. (Of course, I should add here that I live in an apartment with a cat, rather than a house with a wife! But maybe that will come when I'm in my 30's...)

Your site was a great one, and hope that the torch will be carried to a worthy caretaker...
