Subject: Do you Remember Fairyworld?

Back when i first started using Poser, there were several free sites where you could download free Poser stuff like clothes and props. Among these were Kozaburo's site, Digital Babes, whixh is still up and running, Poserworld, which is still around, but back then it was a free site, and Fairyworld. I never really downloaded anything from Fairyworld since Fairies aren;t really my thing, but I was wondering if anyone remembers what happened to them> Seems I recall that they merged with another site, but it was so long ago, I've forgotten. Any know the story?

Wasn't Fairyworld Renapd's site way back? Not sure but didn't she join Poserworld later?

That's what I thought, but I don't remember seeing any fairy stuff at Poserworld... ever.

There's an interview with Thorne at Planit3D telling the history of his sites but I don't know if he was part of the one you're talking about. I just remember that it had Fairy or Faerie in the name. Seems like I recall there being two people involved man/woman and there was a split of some kind at the end (no offense to the parties if I misremember).

Fairyworld merged with Poserworld about 10 or so years ago. That's why in the Poserworld content, some of the folders are named PWFW (= "Poserworld/Fairyworld").

Ah, I bought one of their disks years ago and I remember the folders being named that. Always wondered what that meant.

Looking around a bit for old links, I think the name was* FairyWoods -* Poserworld, still has that name amongst their URLs (http://poserworld.com/FairyWoods/). It was indeed Renapd's site (http://members.xoom.com/renapd77/). I tried to access it using the Wayback Machine but all of the captures seem to be empty except for the earliest ones in 1999. Not much in those, no images and the downloads don't work. Did see references to Bushi - another name from the past. FairyWoods and Lannie's are two of the first Poser sites I remember going to - in addition to PFO.

EDIT: I was trying the xoom.com link in the WayBack Machine. the Poserworld link in the archive from 2000 has the graphics and at least the 1st download I tried works. Now if I could remember the site that had the Barbarella outfit for Posette :-)
