    Ten years old...


    This week, Homepage of the Dead is ten years old!

    Over the course of the years the site has slowly grown and now includes many pages, articles and interviews which should hopefully prove of interest to both hardened fans and casual readers alike.

    HPotD also probably has the most active forums on the internet regarding this genre, so for anyone wanting just a chat or wanting to obtain up to date information, these forums are a great resource.

    Also of interest are the original scripts for Dawn and Day of the Dead. If you've read them elsewhere chances are they were 'borrowed' from here. They didn't exist online until they were hand typed in for your reading pleasure.

    HPotD is also home to probably the most comprehensive memorabilia database as well. Wondering what merchandise has been made over the years? Then have a look through the Memorabilia Database.

    And, without a doubt, this site also has the biggest collection of fiction for the genre on the internet - now over 750 contribution (excluding contributions into the newly added horror and scifi categories). Fancy reading a couple of stories? Then visit the Fiction Section.

    However! What must be remembered is that none of this would have been possibe without the regular visitors, posters and contributors who have quite simply helped keep this site alive. So a big thank you must go out to everyone who has visited and contributed over the past ten years!
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Indeed a big pat on the back to Neil for keeping this site in check. Here's to another 10 more years of HPotD - at least.

    It's a great community. I'd make love to it if it was a woman.

    aye, it is a great forum, lots of funny youtube vids, great film makers section and lots of interesting conversation, and immature ones too plus the rare flamers that appear are way more entertaining than on a usual forum, mostly cus on other forums they are usually 12 year olds that are ,quote, "gay for naruto"
