January 6, 2010.,Ai, who runs animeotk.com, which hosts Handprints, needs some help.  He writes:

    "As some of you may or may not be aware, our server is to be frank overloaded. We run a dedicated server (A server just for our websites) and between AnimeOTK.com, AnimeAi.com, FurryAi.com, YaoiAi.com, DiaperedAnime.com and ODAnime.com the current server can no longer cope. I have 3/4 of the bits needed to build us a brand spanking new server. I have a quad core AMD Opteron processor, 8GB ram, 500GB backup sata drive and 2 x 32GB fast solid state drives for the files and databases. The issue I have is that it's all currently built into a tower. The company I was originally going to host with no longer allows tower servers, instead asking all servers be rack mounted. This causes me a problem. To turn this server into a rackmount I will need to 1) Buy a rack mount chassis, 2) Buy a new motherboard (the current one will not fit into a standard chassis - thankyou dell! >_<) and 3) Possibly buy new ram (This depends on if the current ram is motherboard specific or not - again, if it's not... thankyou dell -_-). This I estimate is going to cost somewhere in the region of $300-$500 - money I simply do not have! The adverts on our sites don't even cover my monthly server bill as it is (I'm often pumping $50-$100 of my own cash into paying the monthly server fees) and simply cannot afford another outlay. Therefore I extend a plea to you guys - I know it's the time of year nobody has money but if you feel you could spare anything, please do drop me a PM. I would love to get this site onto a server that isn't crashing three times an hour!

                  Five new images.in Comics Gallery #7.  The Handprints.viewer who sent these writes: "The ones of the same girl are Suske en Wiske, two very famous (and very Flemish, even Antwerp) characters. The old comic strips of the 1940's, 1950's and early 1960's showed sheer genius (but the humour and situations are so extremely local that few foreigners get all the fun). Actually, the girl, Wiske, existed in two versions: a popular one with a ribbon in her hair and an "elite" version where her hair was in more traditional blond with a pigtail. That's the one were she gets spanked for disobedience in presence of an "alien". Her friend, Suske, got a painful bottom, but she is smiling as she has put a small pillow in her pyjama pants! Now, giving a spanking to a ten year old would be close to unthinkable, but in the 1960's it was the most normal thing in the world.  Locally, Willy Vandersteen is more famous than Hergé from Tintin - he was called the Brueghel of the comic strip, as his strips are so deeply rooted in local folk lore. Although his strips were destined for children, some of them are true gothic thrillers. His name was Vandersteen. Americans never liked his work. The horror in his strips is creepy, his heroes are ambiguous."

March 16, 2009..Animeotk.com.hosts Handprints.  So if Animeotk.com.goes under for lack of financial support, Handprints will be without a home also.  Below is an urgent message from Ai, Animeotk's owner:

Dear All,

   Further to our PM last December (Hard copy here: http://animeotk.com/forum/showthread.php/anime_otk_needs-5504/index.html ) it troubles me to say that AnimeOTK.com and it's sister sites still need your help to stay open. The kind and generous donations we received back than are running very low and will not cover our hosting bill due at the end of this month. The British pound is still at an all time low against the dollar and it's making the hosting for this site more expensive than ever.

   The semi-good news is I have built a new server, however the company I was planning on hosting with has changed their Terms of Service and no longer allow the size of server I built meaning that I either need to find a new hosting company or rebuild the server. So currently, our server fee is still costing $250 a month. Advert revenue has increased slightly but not by much, and is still nowhere near to covering our operating costs. The last donation drive paid for 4 months of hosting and some script renewals (NOTE: OTK and it's sister sites are now fully updated to the latest version of VBulletin) so I'm hoping that with a new drive we can get enough for another 4 months. This should see us through to being hosted on our new server.

   For instructions on how to donate please send us a message through the Contact Us  form and select "Donation Inquiry."  If you do donate, please be sure to include your forum username and all of the sites you are a member of so your account can be upgraded to VIP donator status with minimal delays. VIP Donator status entitles you to unlimited daily downloads from the AnimeOTK Downloads area, bigger PM storage and our promise that provided you are logged in you will never see another advert on AnimeOTK or it's sister sites again.

   If you love this site as much I do please consider making a small contribution to help us stay alive and keep going.

-Ai

                        Sorry I haven't been returning emails.  I haven't found a working anon proxy in weeks and am still looking.  To make matters worse, excite.com how has a new email interface which is inferior to their previous, and eliminated all the flags I had put on messages I intended to get back to once I found a working proxy.

                        Recently I discovered the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim clay animation series, "Moral Orel."  There are spanking references in nearly every episode, with Orel shown in his father's study pulling his pants up and his father sitting in the armchair still holding the spanking belt.  In a couple episodes there are on screen spankings of clay puppet children.  This show mocks American midwestern conservative white Protestant culture, and is often shocking and dark; so if you think something like that might offend you, you've been warned.

April 14, 2008.. Four new.Drooaygah.images.in Drawings Gallery #137.  Of this one, Droo writes: "Back when I was 7 or 8 years old, I attended a private summer school for a brief period.  There was a young couple who used to come once a week and give talks about places they'd visited in the world, and they had just returned from China.  Visiting China was a very unusual thing at that time, for you young'uns - because Nixon had only just normalized relations with them.

Anyway, I remember this very vividly: they were telling us about elementary schools in China, and they said that every morning you had to bow to the teacher when she came in.  And if you didn't (I remember the exact sentence to this very day) 'you get a very hard spanking - with a stick!'

At the time I made a mental note to myself to never forget to bow to the teacher if I ever ended up a student in a Chinese elementary school!  But of course, the little spanko in me kept conjuring up visions of what would happen if I didn't - and even of deliberately not bowing just so I could experience it.

I was thinking about that late last night and it inspired this drawing.  The idea here is that it's a picture from a 'National Geographic' type magazine story about a fictional Asian country I've named 'Kentarabang' (which is bastardized Malaysian, as is the phrase in the caption.  It's not real Malaysian, just made up words that sort of sound like Malaysian words."

February 21, 2008..One new Chip Wilson image.in Drawings Gallery #141.  Wilson writes, "I should clarify my compositional technique on this image in order to assure viewers that it depicts no actual person.  The base B&W line drawing is partially traced from approximately ten photographs, most taken by me of my own figure (e.g. hands, which I cannot draw well off the top of my head), others depicting furniture, hair, eyes, ears, and so forth.  Coloring is done manually.  Clothing, switch on floor, welts are original."

                    Artists, please do not ever send any spanking image to Handprints which contains a digitally altered photo of a minor, however like a drawing the final product may appear.  Unlike drawings, photos are potentially legally dicey, in addition to ethical concerns.

February 8, 2008..The Spanking Art Wiki is back up, now at http://spankingartwiki.animeotk.com/wiki/Main_Page.

January 31, 2008..It's official.  The Spanking Art Wiki has been shut down.  Click here to read Wikia Inc.'s weak, inadequate response to critics.

January 27, 2008..The Spanking Art Wiki has been shut down by self-appointed moralists, possibly permanently.  Spankart reports, "According to Wikia, the closure is temporary 'to give us the breathing space to further discuss this issue, and come to some conclusions about the future of spankingart.'  We will have to see how things develop in the next few days. A full database backup of the wiki is preserved. In case it turns out that we can't continue at Wikia, we could look for a new host and if we find one, we could make a relaunch of the wiki. But let's be patient for a few days and see what the discussion with Wikia will bring.  Thanks in advance for your support for our spanking art wiki, which belongs to the entire community.

"Last week one of our editors created a new article at the lemma "Boy scout" that described in some detail what a boy scout is (practically the same information you can find at Wikipedia, only in our own words), plus a brief paragraph on boy scouts in spanking art and in adult spanking roleplay. The article was illustrated with 3 images: a) a vintage photo of a boy scout, b) a contemporary photo of a group of boy scouts, c) a boy scout spanking cartoon by Comixpank. All images were under a GFDL-compatible free license.

"The image b) was copied from Wikimedia Commons, a usual procedure in GFDL-licensed wikis. The controversy began when our "Boy scout" article was brought to the attention to people at 'Wikipedia Review' (an anti-Wikipedia and anti-Wikia forum) and at Wikipedia (at Jimbo's user page). Some people expressed the view that it was a violation of the children's personality rights to post their photo on a site such as the Spanking Art Wiki (even if the GFDL license permits reusing the mage by anyone and for any purpose whatsoever). Several people there made accusations against the Spanking Art Wiki in general: some called it 'p3d0phi1e' and others claimed it 'avocated and condoned violence and child abuse.' Needless to say, none of this is true. At least one person, the initiator of the controversy, contacted Jimbo and Wikia staff and asked them to shut down our wiki.

"The next day, Wikia contacted me and asked me to delete all contemporary photos of minors from the wiki because of that personality rights debate. I complied to their request and introduced a new rule to our official image use policy. 74 images out of 1,200 were deleted and we thought the debate was settled. That was three days ago. Then, yesterday, Wikia closed down our wiki 'temporarily' and contacted me by e-mail explaining that they will need some days to discuss this issue further.

"There was actually nothing special at all about the Boy scout article. We've had articles similar to this one for years. The article was written/edited by both another user and by me (I can't look up the exact history now), but it was me who had added image b), so I take the blame for that.

"By the way, just to avoid misunderstanding: The image that the controversy was about is not a spanking photo. It's the second image from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boy_scout (" Boy Scouts at a campfire ring at summer camp"). Of the 74 images that we removed, only one was a spanking photo (a birthday spanking snapshot, F/f, fully clothed). 73 were normal mainstream photos from sites such as Wikipedia or Flickr that were available for reuse under a free license.

"In any case, the person who started the controversy did not discuss the image issue in our wiki, because his intention was from the beginning not to get the image removed but to get our entire wiki shut down. The image just suited his cause."

I have begun to set a good example in my wiki, and other artists such as Franco and Gauis Marius have already followed."

August 30, 2007..The Handprints viewer who so kindly allowed us to use the dawnoffreedom.com domain for galleries has lost the domain.  However, spanking artist Ai has generously stepped forward to offer replacement bandwidth, this time in a new domain, thehandprints.com, kindly hosted by animeotk.com.  All of the Drawings Galleries which recently vanished with the disappearance of dawnoffreedom.com have been moved to the new domain and should be accessible again.

July 29, 2007..I've been away for a few weeks, so here is a major update, today and yesterday.  I will be away for part of August, beginning soon, so if I am slow to return emails or to acknowledge submission of artwork, it is nothing personal.

July 10, 2007..Apologies to those whose emails I haven't answered, especially those who have sent artwork and haven't heard back from me.  I have had some other stuff going on in my life and haven't had time to deal with the mailbox and may not for a while longer.   I have popped in here to post the following message because it simply can't wait.
                        On July 16th the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will hold public hearings on "net neutality."  This is about a handful of corporations such as Comcast and AT&T wanting to selectively control how fast websites load, with high speed given to those who can afford to pay expensive extra premiums, while sites such as Handprints.could be slowed down to a crawl.  This is not a "political" left/right kind of issue.  Moveon.org, the American center-left political action committee, and Rev. Pat Robertson's rightist Christian Coalition, two organizations which normally disagree on every issue, jointly took out full page newspaper ads opposing the corporate power grab and advocating continuation of net neutrality.
                        Do you want to see Handprints.slowed down to a crawl?  If not please click here to take action.  If you are a U.S. citizen, this link will allow you to write to your representatives and also to sign an online petition to Congress.  Whether or not you are a U.S. citizen, you may register your opinion in favor of defending and continuing net neutrality with the FCC from this link, but you must do so before July 16th.  Please act now!

June 3, 2007  Giving nonfictional spankings to real life children is now illegal in New Zealand, in the wake of an overwhelming 113-7 parlimentary vote - making it the nineteenth country to pass such a ban.  But here in Old Handpryntsland, make-believe spankings of imaginary children will always remain legal!!!!!

        One new.video on the Handprints Videos Page.

                                A critic of the Handprints site recently asserted that it is perfectly alright to force spankings on unconsenting, real life children; but children must be protected from viewing drawings and comic strip panels depicting the very same thing.  I countered that since actual spankings are G-rated for children, then nonsexual artwork depicting imaginary child spankings warrant a G-rating as well.  The critic responded that viewing this website would be a more noxious experience to a child than being forced across an adult's knee, bared and spanked.  The reason, he argued, is because the actual spanking the child received would have a context, while the make believe images on this site lack any such context.  My rejoinder follows:

        Two new video clips on the Handprints Videos Page, which Cannibal Khan was nice enough to film off the tv screen, digitize, and send for our enjoyment.  The classroom scene is from a 2002 movie entitled "Evelyn" based on a true story about a legal case in Ireland.  The bedroom scene is from "The Flame Trees of Thika," a PBS mini-series from the mid-1980's. It too is based on a true story, a memoir written by Elspeth Huxley about her experiences as a child in British-colonial Africa.  Holly Aird plays 11-year-old spanked Elspeth.

        Four new Little Iodine images.here, here, here.and here,  in Comics Gallery #3, and a cleaner version of an older image here.

April 3, 2007  Spanking a child in the home is now illegal in The Netherlands as of last month.  This makes eighteen countries which now have total bans on all forms of spanking of real life children.  Several more countries are close to passing similar laws making it a crime for a nonfictional parent to turn a real-life child over their knee.  But rest assured that in The Fantasylands make-believe children are still subject to frequent and sound bottom warmings for the tiniest misbehaviors!  And The Handprints Spanking Art & Stories Page and all  of its contributing artists remain committed to keeping everyone up to date on the use of spanking as the sole form of discipline for every ficticious little girl who lives there.

An imaginary spanking NEVER did
 a make-believe child ANY harm!!!!!
