Is it possible to get the old artwork from the Mimir into Planewalker you think? It would probably entail contacting all those people that contributed to the Mimir, but they are truly beautiful pieces of art that shouldn't pass into obscurity.

The web dabuses (dabii?) are working on it. The problem is getting in touch with everyone, including Jon Winter, as the mimir-net domain is going to expire soon. We've lost more than a dozen mephits trying to get in touch with him....

A more agressive approach might be justifiable, then. Put up a Mimir mirror site with the disclaimer "if any of this is yours, and you don't want it posted here, email us and we'll take it down right away."

At the very least, the contents of the mimir.netbooks page should be mirrored.

I believe Eric and Sarah have all the content downloaded and ready for mirroring, should something terrible happen to mimir.net. It's a matter of either mirroring it exactly here or converting to the regular planewalker format.

We are looking into a few different options with regards to Mirmir. We're trying to balance availability of content many know and love with the fact that we've not gotten explicit permission to copy/mirror/take anything. We don't want to step on any toes, but it sure is a shame for it to be stagnating. Yes, we have an offline copy of (hopefully) everything. I'm sure if we do post anything, there will be much ado about it. Smiling

There's at least one hidden page - http://www.mimir.net/salt/ - which I found accidently.

The downloads page is hidden too, since the torment.mimir.net domain expired. As is the entire Water of the Styx site, but there really isn't much of interest there.

Then there's the old Mimir site; not all of that was ever moved to mimir.net. That probably isn't going anywhere soon, though.

Cool. I'll grab those too. Feel free to post or email any hidden areas, URLs, etc. I can add them to the list used by my "crawler".

My memory may be a little too fragmented to specifically recall the exact content of past sites, but wasn't this the webpage which also contained links to various screenshots from Torment?

If you're talking about this subsite:

http://www.mimir.net/torment/

then yes.
