    About AI image generation and chatbots

    Like many, I've recently spent some time -- too much, really -- trying to figure out what the current enchantment with chatbots and AI (Artificial Intelligence) image generators is all about. Here are my overall impressions so far: The OpenAI chatbot -- GPT -- is amazing. It's been described as...

    A discontinued thing you miss.

    I used to love the old Blackberries, too. They were way ahead of their time with instant messaging. Sadly, just like Nokia which dominated the "feature" phone market, once the iPhone came along the others either fell in line or became irrelevant. I have very closely followed the PDA and...

    Just wondering who runs the site now days

    The web really only got going in the mid-90s. Dimensions was one of the early sites, but throughout the 90s, the emphasis still was very much on the print magazine. In the early 2000s, the Dimensions website became much more detailed, with first Dimensions Chat and then the Dimensions Forum...

    Just wondering who runs the site now days

    Are the original issues of Dimensions still available? Sadly, not so much. After 40 years and several moves across the continent, not that much is left. Also, back then, disk storage was at a premium -- those old 80MB drives filled up quickly. :-) Anything saved on Page Maker, early Quark, or...

    A discontinued thing you miss.

    I actually have the power to make things discontinued. How do I know that? From years of experience that once I finally find a thing that's just perfect and that I really and truly like, it's almost instantly discontinued.

    Memories of the 2009 Dimensions Bash

    I didn’t. It existed already when I joined NAAFA in the early 1980s. Bill Fabrey probably would know.

    I can't believe I started the whole thing almost 40 years ago.

    RIP Chris Browne: Hägar The Horrible, Raising Duncan

    Sorry to hear that. I loved the strip and was unhappy when our local newspaper replaced it with some "more modern" strip. And I must confess I had a bit of a crush on Helga.

    Size acceptance... really?

    This thread warrants so much more commentary than I can give right now, but here are a few thoughts: -- Dimensions started in the early 1980s as the FASIG, the Fat Admirer Special Interest Group of NAAFA, the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance. The FASIG's initial mission was to be...

    The Thread For Long-Time Members To Check In...

    After having passed the Dimensions Forum on to its current owners in 2015, it's nice to see that it's still here eight years late. That wasn't a given, considering that it's all social media these days. Great to see some familiar faces still here!

    It's been over 20 years - Amazing!

    The Dimensions chat in its prime was absolutely wonderful. So many chatters, so much fun. The software was powerful and very versatile. The guy who wrote the code was a programming genius and he knew it. He was also incredibly paranoid and constantly thought people were stealing his (very...

    Memories of the 2009 Dimensions Bash

    Back in 2009, the first, and only, Dimensions Bash took place in Orlando, Florida. My dear friend Heather produced it with the help of many volunteers. It turned out to be a grand event. Below is the keynote speech I presented: Dimensions Bash 2009 Welcome to the first ever Dimensions...

    A discontinued thing you miss.

    It's been my experience that as soon as I find something that I really, really like, the company will discontinue it. And one thing that I wish we never had to discontinue was the glorious Dimensions streaming Chat. It was so much fun.

    Depressing economic reality.....

    It probably depends on the person and the type of business. Often, there is no need to be seen, ever. My point is primarily that the internet has opened up so many avenues. Almost anyone has something to say. Combine that with interest or expertise in an area, a field, or a type of product, or...

    Depressing economic reality.....

    It is infuriating that that still happens in hirings/promotions/careers. Even if there has been progress in many areas. I learned a lot in my decade and a half in corporate America, and for that I am grateful. However, perhaps the most important thing I learned was that I MUCH prefer to do my...

    What will your legacy be to the world....

    It's not a big legacy, but I created Dimensions, and I hope it made a difference in the lives of many people.

    Those annoying, possibly acrimonious, acronyms...

    Back in the day, FA was male and FFA female, but I realize that gender designations and such have become much more fluid, and language conventions have changed as well. Personally, I think BBW is used for Big Beautiful Woman more than anything else. I owned the BBW trademark once when my company...
