The Old Guard
This category is for the sites that have been around for a long time. I am also listing some that are now changed or no longer in existence out of appreciation for the hard work and love.
First group has “done the lead-around” (translation: been there and back again; around for awhile) — the second group is newer.
Sites without links no longer exist, but sites with an asterisk (*) are still being updated!
