I don't know if anyone has noticed or not, but Joye's fansite, Randall Fans United, has finally been taken down completely. I know it was still up around Christmas, since I went there looking for screen caps, but when I tried to go there today to find another screen cap, it was gone. For those of you who don't know about RFU, this was, for many years, the ultimate Randall fan site on the internet, with the most-extensive collection of Randall screen caps anywhere, even though they were really low-def by today's standards. It was owned by a former member here and had some impressive trivia about Randall, including his physical stats, and little-known factoids, like how many seconds it took him to completely blend in with a background. Even after she herself lost interest in Randall and moved on to other interests, Joye agreed to leave the site up for fans and fans-to-be to enjoy. I don't know if Yahoo(who owned Geocities)took it down, or who did, but it's gone. I really needed that screen cap of Randall looking down at the newspaper, right before he spots Mike Wazowski in the background, so if anyone's got it, I'd appreciate sending it to me. I'm working on another fan art piece and need to get that expression just right. pitbulllady

Oh, no. Yes, I've been around long enough to know about that site, and it's a real shame that it was taken down. I'll provide you that image, pitbulllady, via PM.

It was indeed the site with most expansive screen-cap gallery dedicated to Randall.... It also hosted art...fanfics on him. Even a news casting that centered around him.
In it's hayday it was the place for fans to go other than the board.
It was a great place....*chuckles* Heh...I should know...I helped as the contributing webmaster....*shakes head* Though unfortunately I can't get the site up myself...Joy is...the only one who can do that. Though...I do recall the site went down before once and Joy was asked to bring it up again, which she did. Unsure how long ago that was...

Oh, that is a shame . Since it really was a well established website and personally, something I really enjoyed looking through at the various screen caps, different fan arts and fiction pieces and really it was one of the first of it's kind to relate to Randall! But, we will all help to keep the Randall well known, like you have been doing for years and will hopefully still do for many years to come!
