The first time I came online here at renderosity was about a week or two after Willow lost her fight with this place over title to poserforum.com or something like that. From what I gathered at the time, around 99, both PFO and renderosity were already a few years old. Used to be that you could browse the gallery all the way back here, and that would answer how long that has been up, but that function doesn't seem to be active anymore... so far I've managed to get back as far as galleryid 411, which dates to april 11, 1999. But I think the site is much older than that. Perhaps they restarted the gallery at some point.

Truth has no value without backing by unfounded belief.
