Ultimately? Playboy's lawyers sent me a cease and desist regarding some of the images I used (though I still think the images would fall within the "fair use" clause). Since I hadn't updated it in 6 months and was tired of working on it anyways, I decided it was time to pull the plug. It had a great 6 year run ... but I lost interest in maintaining it a while back. Plus, I'm not sure my girlfriend would completely understand why I needed to do "research" (** cough **) for a section on Seibertron.com called "Before Carly ...".

#-o

It also had become an increasingly larger target for people who were new to the site after the site's increased performance thanks to the movie. A lot of folks hadn't seen Seibertron.com grow up from the http://www.geocities.com/g1archive days of 2000 so they didn't understand where a section like that came from and a lot of people don't know me and my sense of humor and my desire to have Seibertron.com be the ultimate website that <b>I</b> would want to go to. I had my fun with that section while it lasted but it was time for it to go. Seibertron.com isn't the website that it was 4 - 7 years ago. The audience is exponentially larger, we're under the radar of so many people and companies now ... I have to run the site a little differently now that it's in the top 17,000 websites on the 'net.

So, let's have a final toast to one of the more unique sections to have graced Seibertron.com. To "Before Carly ...", you were fun while you lasted. Cheers! :D

One of the top 17,000 websites now, eh? Wow, that's impressive!

Sad to see you go, "Before Carly," but then again... I'm sure I can find pictures on my own should the fancy strike me :-)
