Final Fantasy Fanatic was Anime-Pinas member 245. This authentic 88 by 31 pixel Anime-Pinas button was recovered from the supplied May 27, 2002 archive capture.
Final Fantasy Fanatic was RPG Genesis member 76. This is an original 88 by 31 pixel RPG Genesis button, recovered from an August 12, 2004 Internet Archive capture. The old voting link now points to the archived RPG Genesis directory.
Final Fantasy Fanatic was FF Mages member 259. This is the original 88 by 31 pixel FF Mages button, recovered from an August 11, 2002 Internet Archive capture. The old voting link now points to the archived FF Mages directory.
Final Fantasy Fanatic was RPG Dreamer member 17. This is an original 88 by 31 pixel RPG Dreamer Topsite button, recovered from a December 6, 2002 Internet Archive capture. The captured button came from the same CGI endpoint with id 3; Final Fantasy Fanatic's original page requested id 17.
This was Final Fantasy Fanatic's five-digit CGI visitor counter. The Internet Archive preserved this 75 by 20 pixel GIF in an October 17, 2002 capture, so the counter can be shown again without running the original CGI script.

Ok Call me lazy but I am just copying and pasting what RPGamer.com wrote
about.
Square Succumbs to Sequel Siren a Second
Time
According to Quiter, a Japanese website, Final Fantasy producer Yoshinori
Kitase is considering creating a sequel to the incredibly popular and
much-loved Final
Fantasy VII. Kitase hopes to continue the story of Final Fantasy
VII, and many other staff members are inclined to agree, including Tetsuya
Nomura, the character designer for the later additions to the series.
However, Kitase indicated that they did not want to let down scores of
impassioned fans with a sub-par sequel. With this in mind, the team has
hesitated to make any definite plans for the game.
Doctor John's was a Fenton adult-novelty business. In 2002, its owner testified that he had been arrested five times in Missouri for selling allegedly obscene material, but never convicted. The photo's burned-out S makes "Supermarket of Shoes" read "Supermarket of Hoes".
Look at the new store that popped up in downtown Fenton today,
and they are worried about the porn store.

Also updated the link to Night Sky Productions.

This was a link to the first FFOC trailer. It's a pixelated WMV by today's standards, but I'm not going to host it here and dox me and the others' younger selves. It's in the wild if you know where to look. Have fun.

This pop-up was a forum inside joke about my socks: a mock sales page with an image, an order form, and a link to an AVI of Kyle Shidair (Sage Winard) loving Yed's socks.
You know you want them! They're big, they're smelly, they're mismatched! Everyone wants a piece of the action! If you want these limitless supplies of Yed's socks!
Check out this link and see how happy Kyle Shidair (Sage Winard) was with Yed's socks! Look at him wet his pants as he rubs it across his face! This can be you! All it will cost you is $4.99 plus shipping! Fill out the form below and we will work out the financial details at a later date!
The AVI contained Kyle Shidair saying:
“OH MY GOD. I'm so happy with Yed's Socks”
[He holds a pair of socks, brings them to his nose, inhales and exhales, and grins.]

New top Site, I know not really
worth mentioning but hey it's my first update.
Aug 27, 2002
New Editorials, Enjoy.
Aug 10, 2002
Well we have some updates for ya. First off, new
stuff in the collectibles part of the online store. Next a nice redo of the
layout and what not, and finally, the Grab Bag. This is a public forum where
I, Hobbes, and RTV will voice our responses to YOUR emails. I hope you all
enjoy.

Hello, this is Yed. I would like to apologize for the sudden crash of the
site. I was being charged an outrageous amount of money for going over the
bandwidth. Now that today is a New month, the bandwidth is reset to 0 and the
site will reopen. However some MAJOR changes has come to pass in the week that
the sight has been down.
The first major change is RTV King acquiring the domain
finalfantasyfanatic.net. This move has put me and RTV as equal partners in
Final Fantasy Fanatic. With .net, the bandwidth problem shall be over, plus
double the storage space. To the normal websurfer, there will be no difference
in the site except some links will end with .net instead of .com.
Now with more storage space, FFF has decided to embark on some unique
journeys, to distinguish this site among other Final Fantasy sites. In the
coming weeks, you will see the first new idea. If it flourishes, expect more
to come, if it flounders, well back to the scrap books.

Just to let people know if I do not respond to
any emails, my Microsoft Outlook is acting up. I can receive mail but cannot
send mail. So I have received everyone's mail and read every body's mail to
date. I will reply as soon is Outlook is working again.

The common question I have heard lately is, "Are
you Dead?" Well here is your answer. An Update! Yep I am alive and I have done
some updating. First off Hobbes has 2 new editorials so go ahead and check
those out if you like. Also, I found out the link to The Power Within's
homepage was type incorrectly so I fixed that. Also, if you want to email
Hobbes, I have his email easily accessible now on the left side of your
screen. Finally, I have added another Final Fantasy X movie. This whopping 39
MB video has background music of Linkin Park's IN THE END. If
you have a fast connection, why not and take a gander.
June 14, 2002
OK, I have the forums up once again. After
talking to Kyle Shidar a couple of days ago, he made me decided to give
Ikonboard one more shot. So the forums are up once again and everyone will
have to re-register. Also the moderators of the old forums, when you
re-register, email me or just post a thread in general discussion so I can
give you your mod powers back.
June 13, 2002
More news about the Forums. I have a few message
boards I am looking at. I will start working on it tomorrow. Also Interesting
to Note, take a look over at www.xgam.org
The original XGAM link now points to the supplied June 3, 2002 snapshot. XGAM was the Xenogears: God and Mind site; this June 13 update joked that its Ikonboard crashed on the exact same day as Final Fantasy Fanatic's.
Their Ikonboard crashed the EXACT SAME DAY AS MINE. Coincidence?
June 7, 2002
Ok, So I go to bed last night thinking, oh the
forums are ok I just fixed them finally for the 1000th time. SO just now I
checked it out and it can't read a certain file. So guess what? The forums are
going to stay down while I find something different than Ikonboard. I'll keep
ya updated.
May 24, 2002
Man, I am Good. 3 updates in one month, I
deserve a cookie. Anyway P0sipr0 Productions has been added. This includes
media and reviews of the current two games that have been released. However,
the Cry to Heaven Review and Media is not uploaded. Let me repeat, CTH
Media and Review is not uploaded! They should be uploaded soon.

*GASP* Can it be? I think it is! Yes the whole
site is back up. I know its a shocker, but what can ya do? Hobbes has a new
editorial up so check that out and also keep sending the artwork! I have
received some stellar work so far, keep it up!
April 25, 2002
Alright the site isn't fully up yet, but
uploading is occurring (at my own pace of course). So All the things are on
the server it is just me writing the web pages.
I want a new logo for
forums. The Logo would go were I have Magus, or Crono, or Whomever. The point
being I want something different and well, my artistic skills suck. So you
decide to send me a new Logo to my email address
webmaster [at] finalfantasyfanatic.com
This address was originally a clickable mailto link. It has been written in an obfuscated form and disabled so the restored page does not launch an email client or expose a live mail action.
, and I choose your logo, guess what? A
nice little envelope will come to your door with a check of $25 to the winner.
So take an hour or two, make a logo, and you could be $25 richer. Any
Questions? Post in the forums. The Contest ends on May 25th.

*Site being changed and uploaded for the time
being so expect some goofy things to happen*
Ok, so yea it has been a month since the site has been up,
and well, its not the best layout either. But, you know, it's good enough for
now. Finally, Hobbes first editorial is up and I am sure he very pleased with
this (after all his first editorial has been written for about 3 weeks now.)
So check that out. There is also an online shop where you can purchase Final
Fantasy related items including CD's and games. Well I hope you are all glad
now. Now I think I am going to go back to my nap!
