Howdy, from Texas. The temperature is currently 
127 degrees. Would you like some free webspace 
and simple web-based tools to create your own cel 
gallery? Read on. (If not, be my friend and read 
on anyway!)

I’ve only been collecting for a short time, but I 
decided that perhaps it was time to create a cel 
gallery for myself. Rubberslug is that gallery.

However, this cel gallery is a little different. 
All the pages with cels are generated in real-
time from a big database. Why should you care? 
Well, the same tools I created this cel gallery 
with (plus a few more which are still in testing) 
will soon be made available to you to create your 
*own* cel gallery. We’re not quite ready to take 
this system live, but when we do, it’ll be as 
simple as uploading new cels to our computers and 
writing descriptions for them. The Rubberslug 
server handles the rest.

The advantages here are pretty neat. Never have 
to worry about updating HTML and uploading to a 
server ever again. Add, remove, and reorganize 
cels on your lunch hour. Thumbnails are created 
automatically. Create private password-protected 
sections of your gallery for friends.

Already have a cel gallery? We have some 
surprises down the road for even the most veteran 
of cel collectors. One of the big things we’re 
working on is a massive searchable database that 
will provide information about artwork from any 
show you folks can think of. Tired of people 
asking about Love Hina cels? Just how rare *is* a 
cel of Ein? Point these questions to our site for 
answers -– contributed by your fellow expert cel 
collectors.

What’s the catch? Why are we doing this? Because 
we love you. That’s why. We’re cel collectors 
too, you know. By day, we work for boring people 
with fast cars. Cel collectors are a lot more 
fun. Have fun collecting -- I’ll make sure to 
post here again when we’re ready to go live with 
this thing sometime in August.

Until then, check us out in development and tell 
your friends:
