New Cockrum site
Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2004 9:16 pm
Hi all,
I'd like to announce that there will soon be a new site devoted to the work and career of Dave Cockrum, davecockrum.net. In its first blush I'm going to be concentrating mainly on uploading information on the Dave tribute book and benefit auctions; however, down the line I'd love for the site to become the central repository for Cockrum material, including a bibliography, a link to this messageboard, art by both Dave and his fans, and a guestbook for folks to leave messages for Dave and Paty.
I'm not doing this of any self-interest. I'm just a big fan of Dave's work and it seems a shame not to have a formal site devoted to his work. (Nightscrawlers being, for me, more a messageboard than a full-fledged site) I am a professional web designer so this seems like the best way to donate my skills to helping the Cockrums in their time of crisis.
Obviously I have a number of questions for all of you, since you're Dave's most devoted fans.
- Is it OK for me to upload the Cockrum art from Nightscrawlers to davecockrum.net, while still giving credit to this forum?
- Would anyone like their fan art to be on that site as well? (I won't upload any non-Cockrum art without specific permission)
- Does anyone have a Cockrum bibliography that I can upload?
- Does anyone have additional ideas for cool content on the site?
I'd like to have the beginnings of the site up and running by the weekend. I'm also trying to acquire davecockrum.com from the squatters who currently own it.
Thanks for your time! Please feel free to reply at my personal email, jasonsacks@hotmail.com, if you prefer.
