In 2002, I discovered that I could have a website on Yahoo! Geocities free of charge. I began work on a personal site that exists today in much better form at adamfishercox.com. I discovered Calvin and Hobbes around this same time, which was also the time I recieved a scanner. I made a Calvin and Hobbes page (right) and soon I was scanning in enormous images and not resizing them, leading to tremendous load times, especially over dial-up. But at least it was a website. I began to understand the ways to use PageBuilder (Geocities' site building software) to my advantage in 2004, when the site took a little more shape with actual pages by section. I moved it to it's own shortcut URL as Calvin and Hobbes World (left.) It had a nice design for the time, but was, as many of the amateur sites are, generic. I had it for a long time, but no site ever found it and marketing didn't occur to me. I probably had no more than 2 visitors a day. I took it down with the message you can still see today. I went out of the C&H website "business" until October 2005. It was then that I launched the Yahoo! Group EverythingCalvinAndHobbes. The webmaster of the now-defunct "Calvin and Hobbes Online Museum" joined the group, and when I took a short break to write some of my comic strip, "Just Outside," I asked him to take over moderating for a short time. As it turned out, he continued even after I returned, and the group, this site, and his Calvin and Hobbes site worked perfectly with each other. With his connections, more members came to the group, in turn, more people found out about his then-obscure site, and it prompted me to launch a new, better C&H site, The Calvin and Hobbes Album, which with links on many Calvin and Hobbes sites has gotten well past the visitor amounts of Calvin and Hobbes World. The Calvin and Hobbes Album was extremely successful in 2006, possibly classified in the top 5 C&H sites around, when it's web hosting provider deleted all of it's files. It was then merged with its sister site and rebuilt. About a year later, problems arose with my host, and so I moved the site, and gave it a new, much worse look, in an attempt to feign an update while I continued on with other pursuits. In August of 2008, I couldn't stand having my name on such an ugly and poorly done site, and so I decided to give it a properly coded, nice looking home, so I could be proud of what is arguably the most successful site I have. Thanks for visiting!!
