Judy Room Archives
1999 Homepage
NEW PAGES! - "The Judy Room Archives"

While researching for what I thought was the 10th anniversary of The Judy Room in 2008, I discovered that the anniversary is actually in 2009! Well, since I had done the bulk of the work on re-presenting old pages and the "tour the room" feature, I decided to go ahead and post everything now. I'll figure something else out for the 10th anniversary in 2009.

It's a fun look back at the evolution of the site, plus it's nice to have the actual Judy "Room" back online with new scans of the original photos, plus some never-before-seen photos of an earlier slightly different incarnation of the "Room".

I had fun putting researching and putting these pages together, and I hope everyone has fun taking a trip down "memory lane". The site sure has changed over the years!

I'll post more archival pages and photos as I go through more back-up discs and folders.
