Just to add a couple more words to the subject at hand.  Back on January 01, 2001, 
I started a Disney Comics & Animation Message Board.  The board is moderated by 
me, but everyone is welcome to post.  The message board is listed on the DCML, but 
the postings to the board have dropped dramatically over the past couple years.  
It still gets a number of hits related to the cartoon W.I.T.C.H., but mostly for 
requests for the themesong.  Otherwise it gets Spam from people selling their Male 
Member Enlargements or Money Investment scams.  I am automatically notified 
everytime someone posts, so as soon as I can check the post I delete the spam.  I 
also try to ban the poster's IP address, but they seem to have so many the list of 
banned IPs grows.  I try to keep that in check as well.  Posting is instantaneous 
and threads about differing subjects are easily identified and followed.

Anyhow, I used to be much more excited about the MB, but after my previous Service 
Provider dumped my entire HOOZOO website (including art), and I had to recreate it 
(something I'm only lately getting time for since moving BACK to San Jose, CA), 
and since interest in posting has dropped, my interest in doing EXTRA things (such 
as creating new banners, highlighting special characters, updating links to 
special sites, notifications about upcoming Animated features & DVD releases, 
etc.) has likewise waned.  

The most notable recent flurry of activity was when I posted a message about the 
Religious Right attacking Disney as promoting Satanism for producing W.I.T.C.H.  
Otherwise, it has reverted back to pre-teen girls requests for the WITCH themesong.

If there is a renewed interest in the Message Board, I'd be willing to resume a 
concerted interest in making the board more colorful and interesting.  I am the 
sole moderator of the site (as loaned to me by Boardhost), but if anyone is 
interested in CO-moderating it with me, and have ideas that they'd like to do with 
it, I am open to that as well.

The board's address, for those not familiar with it, is:
