NDB+IMDB

For the first time ever, our Names Database is now accessible from the Home Page in a way it was never before. Now, it can appear from the Quick Links at bottom right, and will appear over the entire page! This is much better than before, where it was the last remaining object of the site to open in a separate window, despite the fact that it would no longer open its links back in the original window.

Aside from that, the Names Database now offers links for every name that also appears on the Internet Movie Database! Some names have already earned additional credits working on projects other than Thomas Productions, and it's feasible anyone can continue doing that very thing today. The quantity of names here that have an IMDb entry is quite amazing, actually, as most if not all of them were created through this site (thanks to The Dog of Pompeii, The Last Kiss, and At the Core)!

3rd Site, Part I

As you may have noticed by now, if you're capable of reading this very text, our site has transferred both its Home Page and News Blog to a new site: directorG.uuuq.com. While the address is slightly longer, it was necessary for several reasons: 1) This News Blog takes up more space than you'd think -- at least 11 MB, 2) I needed a 3rd site that actually permitted FTPing files, which the 2nd site (jimthzz.bingodisk.com/public) simply wasn't capable of, 3) It was free, and 4) No Ads!

So, call it a celebration of sorts, as anything that's free (and means it) is a worthy cause. We'll see how well it works; it took nearly 2 weeks before it would let me register. Also, I'm having to put this main index page on there, too, so that I don't use an iFrame to insert the News Blog to another site's page (since it gets iFramed to the bottom of the main page regardless of where it's located...!).

The original links of directorG.com and directorG.com/news (for now, at least) will stay the same, and you'll get redirected to the new Zymic ones.
