Internet Conference Site Opens - The Cartoon Bar
Oct 30, 1996

The Internet CARTOONS Forum is pleased to announce the opening of a live graphical virtual world conference site, named "The Cartoon Bar."

The new conference site makes it possible for people to meet together in a graphical environment on their computer screens, and talk to others using text, sound, animations and expressions. You can choose among 15 different rooms where you'll meet other visitors. Wander about through the Village, the Farmlands, the Digs, and the Ice Caves. Ascend a huge tree to the Club House and the Gazebo. Visit the Prop House to pick up more accessories for your on-screen appearance. Or just hang out in the Cartoon Bar, order a round of virtual beers, and visit with friends.

The Cartoon Bar was created as a way for visitors to the Internet CARTOONS Forum web site to meet and talk about cartoons - the most popular of the communication arts. Amateur and professional cartoonists, fans, and collectors can enjoy friendly conversation and meet others with the same interests at the Cartoon Bar.

The Cartoon Bar was built using The Palace graphical virtual worlds architecture. The Palace has quickly become the number one graphical live conference platform on the Internet, with over 300,000 members now using the simple client software to enter virtual worlds and meet other people.

A free demo version of the software can be downloaded from The Palace web site. You can also purchase a boxed package at software stores everywhere. If you like the Palace and The Cartoon Bar, you can register your software for $25, which gives you added member-only benefits. Are you already a Palace member? You can go directly to The Cartoon Bar, at Hostname: cartoonsforum.com, Port: 9994.
