News and Updates Contact Boatswain April 22-2012 All the antique photographs and postcards have been moved to the post mortem photography album galleries. They can be viewed in 2 main categories, one for the post mortems and one for all other old pictures. The antique photos and postcards can still be viewed without registration but for comments and other extra's you need to register to have acces to all including the post mortem galleries. We hope it's less confusing now with one registration for all galleries. June 18-2011 A new website layout has been launced! I hope you like it.

Recently there's a new unique layout created from the default template  that comes with the script. ( default template link) On the forum you can find many more pictures, info, and member contributions.
