And then we were six!
Dear $username -
Hypography was launched on May 17, 2000. That means we are six years today!
To celebrate, we are arranging a charity auction with custom prints made by our forum member, Turtle. All bids start at $10. Proceeds will go to charity, so dig out those wallets!
Find the auctions at

Quiz contest winners
Our anniversary quiz contest was a success! 10 quizzes were submitted, and after a week of quzzing and rating, the winners were announced today. Congratulations to all who won, and thanks to all who participated.
Check out the results:

New moderators
CraigD, TheBigDog, and Jay-qu have been bumped up from Junior Moderators to full Moderators. Thanks for your excellent efforts, guys!
We will be contancting prospective junior moderators in the near future.
Now what?
So we're six...and we passed the 100,000 post mark a few weeks ago. We may still be a small forum compared to others, but if the community spirit we have seen lately is any indication, we are definitely headed in the right direction.
We're not standing still, either. There will be more features coming up soon.
Perhaps most notably, we are soon able to launch our science blogs. If you want your own blog, please contact me via private message and let me know what you would like to blog about.
In the future we may offer blogs to sponsors only, but at $10/year for a sponsorship it's a fair price!
Check out our beta blogs at

See you at the forums!
All the best,
