In the beginning....... there were only a few skins by Psycho Pirate. I am working on getting the others uploaded.
Let me know if there are any changes to design you want to make. I am thinking of using as few subpages as possible, so will try to keep all of a creator's content on one page if possible.
Still need to add the line about removing content if requested.
And I've only tested this in MS Edge, so let me know if there are any browser issues.
Four Atoms and two Batman skins are up an downloadable. Let me know if there are any dl issues.
More to come.........
The New Museum Link http://ffmuseum.org/ (http://ffmuseum.org/)
Maybe I've been up too long... is there a link somewhere?
Posted link. Sorry about that.
Nice!
HUZZAH!!!! What a marvelous day it is!
Now, let's see who's gonna be FR's primary treasure hunter who oh so graciously donates to this fine museum.
Fantastic! Great work WF; your efforts are sincerely appreciated, as are those of all the awesome people involved in this! :thumbup:
Thank you so much for all your efforts, WF. Thanks to you a piece of our history is preserved.
Thank you for taking this on WyldFyre!!! :thumbup:
More skins by Psycho Pirate added to the Museum.
Atom Smasher, 2 Black Canaries, 2 Dr Mid-Nites, Dr Fate and Flash.
Enjoy.
More coming soon.
Updated Psycho-Pirate's page with JSA skins (looking for Huntress if any one has it) and new Homepage.
Great site. Really glad you're doing this.
Thanks Pod. I'm just glad to be able to contribute by saving some of our fine artwork.
Updated now with All-Star Squadron, T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents, and two Phantom skins.
If anyone has the missing skins, please let me know as I would like to put as much as possible in the museum.
Going to try to get all the Psycho-Pirate skins I have up by tomorrow night. I am having surgery on Monday and may not be able to work on it for about a week.
Everyone enjoy!
For Freedom!
You're really doing an incredible job with this WyldFyre, I've been looking for the missing Copper Age Skins (Unfortunately, with no luck), so now I'll add the missing Psycho-Pirate Skins to the search as well.
Best of luck with your Surgery, I hope all goes well.
I just want to say "thank you" again and wish a fast recovery from your surgery, WF.
Small update to the Museum today.
Recovering at home and can only spend a little time at the PC, but did manage to finish what I have of Psycho-Pirate's stuff.
Added Crimson Avenger and Spy Smasher. Thanks, Mike.
Also added all the villain skins I found. I don't have a list of all his villain skins, so if there are any more, please let me know.
I'll keep working as I can.
For Freedom!
Thanks for all of your efforts, WF, and don't stress yourself.
The latest display in our hallowed halls: Skins by Tommy Troy
Now up for your viewing pleasure.
A new gallery opens at the museum today: Ace*Frankly now has a display area.
Also a Wonder Woman skin by Tommy Troy and an alternate Tarantula skin by Psycho-Pirate have been hung in their respective galleries.
Enjoy everyone.
Come one come all. New Exhibit showcasing the work of Dirk Thorazine is now open.
Cool! I've never seen most of those!
Yeah, I am finding a LOT of skins I never knew about. And I used to visit EF a lot in the old days.
Added Ra's al Ghul to Dirk's page along with the mesh it is standard on. I know Ink's work is hosted at Hero Force, but I thought it was appropriate.
Electric Freedom wasn't the first nor the vastest of FF skin hosts. ;-)
It's good to see these "old" (I remember when most came out cause I was there) back online and all.
Added AOA Supergirl exhibit and combined with Ace and Tommy Troy to minimize pages.
Still sorting through skins but expect more soon. :)
I have seen AOH Supergirl listed before on defunct websites, but there were never nay working links. Nice to see what she did.
Thanks to DaGlob we have found a couple of "lost" artistic works.
Now in Dirk Thorazine's display:
Hercules
Reed Richards
The Riddler
and Two Face TAS
In Psycho Pirates Gallery:
Huntress
and Diana Palmer
And in Tommy Troy's exhibit:
Martian Manhunter with a never before seen mesh by the great Yellow Lantern.
Thanks to YL for letting DG release this and thanks to DG for sharing.
Now go visit the Museum and enjoy the artwork.
Alright! You found the Huntress Skin!!! :thumbup:

Thanks to our resident King of the Obscure. :D
Announcing a new exhibit!! The work of
Styles is now being shown in our galleries. Tickets are, as always, free. So go browse and enjoy the art of yesteryear.
I hope soon to show off some of our resident booze guzzling Jester. Wow he did a lot of skins. :cool:
Yeah, I've done a ton of skins...so many I don't remember half of them. 'ell, I'd be amazed if there's a list of everything I've done...
Hey Wyldfyre, "Kymaera", on Styles' page is coming up as just a (.JPEG) File. There's no Skin attached to it.
Thanks Cyber,
I thought I had fixed that earlier. Guess not. :doh:
Should be fixed now.
this is an Excellent site WyldFyre! i guess we could call this a "Vintage" great collection!
Thanks Nait, I'm trying to save as many of the prior works as possible.
A small update to Styles and Dirk Thorazine's displays. Thanks to Cyber, Bishop has been added to Styles area and Superman, Punisher and Wolverine have been added to Dirk's gallery.
Hope everyone enjoys them. Still working on getting some of our resident Jester's skins ready to hang. And a special Anniversary display is planned as well.
You've got to remember, I've been hosted on a lot of sites, WF. It's bound to take quite a bit of time getting my stuff together.
You ain't whistlin' Dixie DJ.
Worst part is the skins I know I'm missing. Hopefully we'll get as many as possible though.
You did a LOT of skins. I've been removing the e-mail addies from the readme files as I go. And I'll have to make some preview pics as well. A lot of the zips don't have any.
Yeah, sorry about the lack of preview pics in the zips. Most of the time the previews were sent seperate from the zips so those hosting the skins could go straight to work without having to look for them.
As for the amount of skins, I think I passed the thousand mark around the time C6 did...so who knows how many more there are out there. Never really kept a good count or list of what I did over the years, I just kept skinning.
Update!!!!
Thanks to Jeremy, we have Psycho-Pirate's Col. Worobu skin.
And a Gallery has been opened for Copper Age. Only the DC related for now. And as always, if you know of any skins missing from the Museum displays, please let me know. I only just found out that I am missing a Darkseid skin by Dirk Thorazine. I'm checking to see if maybe it was the standard on Beyonder's mesh.
Come, browse, enjoy. As always admission is free!
Impressive work, Wyldfyre! So many skins from before my time, it's like a time capsule from the FF's beginning.
Thanks for your hard work.
Thanks for the kind words JJr. I'm hoping some of the original artists can find some new appreciation.
Still working on a special anniversary page and cataloguing D. Jester's skins. Hope to have some more up soon.
Come one come all....
See how our artists used some of the original FF Meshes to create their own take on these immortal characters.......
Come peruse the works of Ink, Glitch Girl and the great Gryphon in a display to celebrate our respect and honor of their hard work!
And yes (still working on the works of the Jester of Death) more displays to come.
Side note: Were the Canadian FF ever released outside the Mod? I have the mod and skins, just wasn't sure if they were available anywhere else.
Enjoy everyone!
FOR FREEDOM!!!
Such lovely skins! I'm really glad to see Gryphon and GG getting their stuff hosted, and I've actually never seen those INK skins, before. NICE! :thumbup:
As for the Canadian skins, I don't think they've been hosted anywhere. I haven't ever seen them.
Great job WyldFyre! :thumbup:
As for the Canadians, I've only ever seen them in that Mod, never individually, or Online anywhere.
I am having some difficulty with GG's stuff though, some of the Files won't open.
Thank you so much, WyldFyre! I was looking forward to those Gryphon's "Alternate FF" skins.
The museum is already one of our most important sites. Thanks for your hard work!
WF, I just took a check at the Anniversary under Gryphon's section. His Monster is actually for a thing Prem put together not part of the FF Heralds of Freedom Skins.
Huh, I guess that's why he always seemed a little out of place.
Though I swore that he was in the same section as the orhers, so maybe that's why I assumed that he was a part of the team.

It might've been but I know from Prem that the Monster was part of his Evengers group and his mod....even did a revamp of it myself for Prem a few years back.
The Monster was on his site, on the same page as Red Raven, Iron Maiden, Emerald Enchantress, and Redcoat.

Yeah, that's why I included it. NP though, I'll remove that one. And I
hope to have Dark Jared's Canandians up this weekend.

Any particular files, or just in general. I'll take a look when I remove Monster.
Np, only reason I knew that was because of Prem/Prev annoying me about it when I was revamping the character for him.
Yeah, this was at Gryphon's site. And the Readme says he joined The Heralds, so...
He was probably making it up as he went along. I dunno. I always liked it.
Weird...hey, if Gryphon said it joined the Heralds then it did. Leave it on, WF.
Maybe post it with Prem's stuff when we get around to it. ;)
Hey WyldFyre, check out the "Adam" File. When you run your mouse over it, it says "Adam.zip". It downloads fine, but I get an error message when I try opening it.

Give it a try now CB. Somehow the file got an extra extension on the end. I was able to open it with np.
Hi Wyldfyre, thanks for pointing me here and glad to be back, a bit.
Upon more testing the files CAN be opened with winrar but shown as corrupted/unusable with winzip, renaming them from zip to rar also works. The affected ones are:
Adam, Alche-mister, bluebottle, la_diabla, queenant, Menta, sea slugger, truth, justice and woman-bot
I am so impressed with this effort but I'm not surprised -- this is such an amazing community. Thanks for preserving all these works!
Is there a full list of creators that you plan on hosting that can be added to? Blobula, Unfluffy/Syn (Freedom Asylum, really), TAP43, Bevo.. the list goes on.. so many great contributors through the years.

I'll take a look at them. Could be that I converted them from 7zip.

Yeah. The list gets longer every time I sit at the PC. :lol:
How do you all feel about storing all the NPI originals somewhere?
Of course we would have to ask each creator for their opinion on this, but it would be a shame if all these great creations get lost forever.
I think maybe yahoo groups or the same FF Museum... IF they agree to have them preserved

I am fine with this. The museum is a place for all those "no longer available" creations.
<as I can get to them that is. RL sometimes sucks>
Finally an update!!!
Now at the Museum - Atomic Robot's Jimmy Olson skins and The Monk from the golden age of Detective Comics.
Also Copper Age's Marvel characters are now on display.
And Kingpin by Dirk Thorazine as well!
<Still working on a base skin gallery and the works of the Jester of Death. Hopefully sooner than later.>
Come see the new displays.
Since you have plans to give Copper an "Other" section, why did you lop the Archie/MLJ characters in with DC? The MLJ characters are "Other" not DC. Yes, there are characters DC created with the Archie heroes names, during the periods they licensed stuff from Archie.

Actually had put them there because of the DC licensing. But, I have plans to move them into the "other" section as they are actually pre-DC. I hadn't realized originally that they were the older Archie/MLJ characters. (I never actually read the DC versions and didn't realize that they had re-vamped the characters. I thought they had used the originals. :doh:)
Just stopping by to let everyone know I'm still working on the Museum. RL and work have been kicking my arse lately. Been working nights/days/weekends for 2 months now and have been dealing with my mom having to go through chemo. She's 82 and just had a lumpectomy for breast cancer. I'll get back to the Museum as soon as I can, but just haven't had the time.
For Freedom!
you have done already such a great job with Museum WyldFyre, i hope things will improve for you and your family.
I feel for your mother. I hope all the anti-nausea drugs work, and she suffers few side effects.
Real life first, my friend. I hope things get better. Thoughts and prayers go your way.
Thanks for all your hard work, WF. I wish a fast recovery for your mom.
...been meaning to ask: any new developments?
Haven't had a lot of time for a while now.
My Mom has finished her treatments and everything seems okay. They found something on her thyroid, but a biopsy turned up negative. At 83 she's doing pretty well.
I hope to get back to updating the museum soon. <and fixing some files that have been reported>
Been a while. I hope to have an update to the museum soon. My file transfer program hasn't been able to connect, so I haven't got things up yet. But I am working on it. Including a page for Death's Jester's old skins.
I wanted to get them up this weekend but I haven't been able to yet. So a little longer before I have an update.
:D
Well, I've hit a snag. I can't seem to log on with my file transfer program. Using the info I had originally (username/password) but it won't connect. I sent a PM to CWWBH but haven't heard back yet. Hopefully I'll have something soon.
Seems like forever since I've worked on this. I have been completely unable to upload anything to the Museum. Apparently ownership of the host changed and, for whatever reason, the transfer protocols changed as well.
I am in a position now to purchase my own web hosting, so I intend to move everything over to a new host soon. I will keep everyone advised as I go. I have all of Bobby69/Vertex's meshes ready to go, just couldn't get them to upload.
So New Year - hopefully Old Content for everyone to enjoy.
More (hopefully) soon.

Great! I'd be willing to contribute to a group hosting fund, if that would be a thing we wanted to do.
Also, I've got everything from the Toybox, so let me know if you need it.
Greetings All. After finally getting some time, I have uploaded the barest of museum content. We present meshes by Bobby69 to start, with the hopes of much more to come. I am working on porting the skins from the first site over and adding more as time allows.
Let me know if there are problems with the downloads or anything else.
http://ffmuseum.org/ (http://ffmuseum.org/)
Also posted link at start of thread.
Oh god, that's a lot of great stuff :wacko: :wacko: :wacko: Congratulations to all who worked on this, great work !! :thumbup:
A new Museum Update! Because no one demanded it - A selection of early skins by our resident booze hound and undead Titan - Death's Jester! I apologize for the lack of previews, I worked with what was in the files. I intended to make the missing ones, but
time did not allow. (And apologies DJ for how long it took me to get these online.)
And the first port from the original Museum pages - The Electric Freedom artists - Ace Frankly, AoA Supergirl, Styles and Tommy Troy. Working on more as time allows.
Looking great. I still have (and use) some of those Electric Freedom skins!
Update!
Finally got the Bobby69 meshes updated. I am still compiling his work as Vertex.
I have one question for the community. I have one mesh - male_basic_whirlwind - which I have as attributed to either Valandar or Bobby69. Does anyone know who is the correct author? I plan on adding Val's work as well and want to credit the right author.
Great job WF! Looking forward to more of the classics being preserved and available.
On Whirlwind, I did some searching on the Wayback site for NewPowerInc. If you hit the yahoo archives tab under meshworks, male_basic_whirlwind shows up as being under yahoo group "Bobby69 #7"
RD
Thanks RD. I'll add it to the archive.
Added the works of Vertex to the Museum.
If there are any which I may have missed please let me know.
New Update!
Meshes by Lord Ehmsidy and skins by Psycho Pirate now available in the Museum!
Enjoy!
Doesn't seem like I can download any of Lord Ehmsidy's stuff?
I'm getting a 404 on the several I tried, including Freddy, the Daemonite, Heihachi, Piccolo, and more.
Hmmm. It may not have updated everything yet. I'll check on it though.
Should be okay now. It didn't upload my saved page with all the correct files. Just checked and seemed to be working.
Works for me! Thanks!
Awesome work. Makes me feel like it's 20 years ago when I look at that site! :)
I know. I still remember downloading things from the original web sites. I just wish I hadn't lost a lot to hdd crashes over the years. I have more and better back-ups now.

Will note that most of what is up comes from my time at FFC along with a few of the things I posted on Kraven's old site. If you are looking for anything that was on Electric Freedom, FFUnderground, NPI, FF Asylum/UnfluffyBunny, or any of the other places I've resided...not there yet. Not like we need them though...Wildfyre is doing more than enough as it is!!

Great...now I feel even more ancient...
Don't you worry DJ. I'm gathering some more of your works. I'm still missing a lot, but I can add quite a bit to the Jester's history.
I noticed that back in the day, you had some skins hosted on multiple sites at the same time. Were these the same skins? Or did you update a lot and then host them on the new platforms? I'm trying to check for duplicates as I go.
I'm hoping to do meshes from 3DMaster next. He's not skopable, but I feel it's deserved.
I'm still working on skins from the old site as well, and then I'll get to other skinners.
Pretty sure 3D Master is on the skope permissions list.
Great job WyldFyre! And thanks for doing this.

Will answer the question in pm later in the week cause got some stuff keeping me offline. Will say some are duplicates at the time because i knew that one of the sites was about to go down/no longer be maintained. However some of them are different...will explain later.
Hail! Hail! Finally, a new Museum Update!
Added the works of 3DMaster (Sorry, no pics. I ran out of time)
Added the works of Grenadier
Added space for Mods to be added soon.
Hopefully it looks okay to everyone. If there are problems with files or pics let me know. I'm hoping RL gives me a break so I can add more content.
Wow! Awesome stuff, Wyldfyre! Great work, man!
This is really helpful
Awesome :thumbup:
great update!
Minor Museum update today. The skins of Dirk Thorazine make a return! And the skins Atomic Robot allowed to be hosted as a bonus!
More hopefully soon.
Nice work, WF!
P.S.: You should probably update your profile's website with the new domain.
You're right!!!
I Forgot to do that when I set up the new site. Fixed now. Thanks for reminding me.
I just wanted to thank all involved, I haven't popped in for a while (trying to get better at that), but having seen the sheer quantity of preservation happening here is just breathtaking. These are real treasures being preserved. Thank you so much.
