Arete Designs

This site had presented several interesting but dated Flash animations. It may be noteworthy that twelve year old movies still ran at all, but it wasn't worth keeping them up any longer. Two historical projects are still hosted here. Henry Shultz and his Dead Town of Hamburg talks about an eccentric antebellum entrepreneur at Augusta, Georgia.

Completely unrelated and not even my work, A Southern Primer was created by Mr. Bill Messer from an earlier series of newspaper articles by W. J. Cash. I learned the page was about to fall victim to web rot, and got Bill's permission to continue it here as a public service. I hope you can spend some time here and learn more about the Southern mind and spirit, seeing as (for better or worse) Southerners seem to be running the country these days. Obviously I can't take very much responsibility (if any) for the content, its presentation, broken links, or anything like that.

One of the animation sites that still seems to have some life, Squareback Attack started with an illustration done for a class.
