Update: July 24, 2001
The Sanctum Forum is now private. At this time we are *not* accepting any new members. Why? I just think it's something that needed to be done. Many existing members have been having trouble accessing the forum due to the increased security. If this is an issue for you, please email helpdesk@ezboard.com and describe in detail your problem. Hopefully they can help. Thanks for all your support.
Updated: June 15, 2001
Wow, long time no update. Most of my energy lately has been focused on the message board and not the main site itself. But due to renewed interest I have added some new pics. Thanks to Erin you can view a few new (at least pics I've never seen) of the '97 GG here. As well as a clearer version of a Season 4 wrap party pic here. Also, Gilli angel and Agustina have sent in some *fabulous* fan art which can be found in the Fan Art section. (I have the bed collage as my wallpaper now, it rocks!) Thanks to all who sent in submisions. On another note, please check out Kristin U.'s new site (the owner of DAGS) called It's Complicated With my removal of the fic and rumor sections here at Sanctum, it's taken over as *the* place to find such stuff. It totally floats my boat (love the design). And lastly, a HUGEEEEEE thank you to everyone who has helped out with the Forum Fund ... you guys have really saved my butt, as well as Sanctum's and I'll never forget it. (big hugs all around) That's it for now ... I'll be in Jersey visiting Ratty over the 4th of July, WHOOOHOOOOO!, so this will prolly be the last update till then ... but you never know.
Updated: April 29, 2001
Finally an update ... but a small one. So far all that has been added are some personal pics. A few on my page(of my bedroom, I know, I know, you all are thrilled), and 3 pics of Erin on her page. If you are interested in checking them out, head on over to the 'Pics' section and scroll down to 'Sanctumites'. Also, please make your way over to the forum and check out 'Sanctum Stuff' and the internal thread 'A show of hands'. It contains some very important news for all members. Thanks!
Updated: April 17, 2001
NEW FANFICS! I've added 2 great new fics in the 'Fic' section. One by Erin and the other by Wakojacko (aka Karina). Please check them out and feel free to leave any feedback in the forum. I've also moved the 'Sanctumite' section to 'Pics' ... I felt it better served it's needs there, instead of the 'Inner Sanctum' ... check my section out to see some new pics of my Jeep and my best friend's kids ... maybe I'll even throw some silly ones of myself in LOL. As soon as I get some more info I'll be adding a section for Skyler ... and I can add one for you. All you have to do is email me some pics along with a few words about yourself, or just some random thoughts to ShipperSanctum@aol.com. All images and text will be added ASAP. ... Fic contest winners and participants (from the first contest) ... calendars are done! They are 12 month calendars stretching from April 2001 - March 2002. If you still want your prize please email your addy to the above address. Sorry for the delay. I think that's about it. Remember to buy Hollywood Moms (which features pics of Tea and West and Gillian and Piper) Order info can be found in our Sanctum Store. It's for a great cause so open up them wallets LOL.
Updated: April 5, 2001
Not much to add really ... an excellent discussion going on in the forum regarding what we know, and what we believe. Also, thanks to a new member 'Jessica Beth' we have some awesome new banners (one displayed below) for you to post on your websites to show your support of the snog. Thanks Jessica! In the coming weeks a new project will be unveiled as will a new promotion for Shipper Sanctum ... so keep your eyes open!

Well we lost the whole site. Over the weekend Tripod was infested by a "bug" that deleted half of their sites ... and we were one of them. Needless to say I was a little upset. I debated putting the site back up, considering the way things have been going, but decided to go ahead and do it. In fact I purchased the URL http://shippersanctum.com for the next year. So, starting *today* (3/20) that is the new address. Easy to remember eh? Tripod has since restored the site ... but I am continuing working on a mirror site so we don't have this happen again. But, until the threats to shut us down die off, I will not be releasing the URL to it. (waves to CookieMonster) That's it for now. Sorry for the inconvenience this all caused.
Updated: February 20, 2001
Sorry for the delay in updates ... I've been working some crazy ass hours at work lately. A few 16 hour days followed by 3 hours of sleep and some more 10 hour days pretty much cut out any social life one may have lol. Anyhoo, I've added some great stuff courtesy of Gaiman ... a few new David pics and the latest installment of her awesome fic. I know I've been waiting eagerly for it, so be sure to check it out. Also, Trisha (UCBPremed) was kind enough to send in a pic and some thoughts of hers to add to the 'Inner Sanctum' ... she is such a cutie. For all of you out there that are also intersted in posting your pic and a little about yourself, just send all your info to ShipperSanctum@aol.com. Lastly I'd like to ask everyone to please take a gander at the Forum ... check out the 'Off the Subject' folder and the thread 'Nag, nag, nag' therein ... I think the discussion there is an important one for all snoggers to read. Thanks!
Updated: February 7, 2001
Gaiman sent in some great pics of David from Evolution, which you can check out here. Not too much going on right now, although you have to check out the newest rumour at Kristin's site, DAGS ... it has spawned some interesting talk in the forum. Oh and three cheers go to Kristin for setting up a forum where anti-snoggers and snoggers can basically battle it out ... I know her guestbook was getting full with some nasty remarks about us, so this gives us *all* a place to discuss our beliefs with the non-believers in a semi adult fashion hehe. If you would like to join in on that discussion you can find a link to the DAGS forum on the bottom of the Sanctum forum (in the ezboard ring) Just remember whenever you post you are representing snoggers everywhere ... think before you post and try to keep the posts to the matters at hand and don't stoop to a level of personal insults. I'm sure Kristin and the anti-snoggers would all appreciate it. Thanks!
Updated: January 24, 2001
2 new pics of the stunning Gillian can be found on the newest page of (what else?) Gillian pics. May I just say now that she looks absolutely radiant ... and just look at that ring (wink). Also please check out the 'Inner Sanctum' for an absolutely cool download ... an X-Cast font. Instead of letters and numbers you get renditions of our favorite X-Stars. The font is brought to you by Sanctum and is the first of monthly downloads that we plan to offer. No, before you ask I didn't make the font ... and I'm not sure who did so, if you are out there please drop me a line so I can give you proper credit. Thanks! I guess that's all for now, but keep checking back there will be some more new additions added to the Sanctum Store soon, along with more pics, fics and other stuff that makes your snoggy heart go boom.
Updated: January 16, 2001
Wow ... bet you're shocked ... 2 updates in 2 days. I'm shocked too. Just wanted to tell you about some cool stuff. New pics in the David section ... and some awesome *new* pics of Gillian here and here. The big news is that we now have a Sanctum Store! Located in the Inner Sanctum, it houses the best David, Gillian and X-Files merchandise that Amazon.com offers. All profits made from purchases through Sanctum will go to charity ... yet to be decided, but probably half will go to NF and the other half will go to David's top charity choice of the time. Let's raise some money for these very worthwhile causes!
Updated: January 15, 2001
Well some of you may have noticed a change in Sanctum ... yes that's right I went back to the black. It happened by accident really ... I was messing around in PSP and ended up with a banner I really liked, needless to say a massive overhaul ensued. Not everything is switched over yet, but most is done. I do have some great new things to tell you about though ... 2 brand spanking new fics ... one by Erin and the other by my co-admin Donna (both are must reads), we also have a new features located in the 'Inner Sanctum' ... now you can send snoggy cards direct from Sanctum itself. Choices are pretty limited right now, but when I get time (rolls eyes with everyone else) I will be adding some cool ones. There is also an automated FAQ section also located in the 'Inner Sanctum' ... have a nagging question you just have to ask? Go ahead! Oh and one more thing ... I have been getting email regarding the Human Click buttons, located on each page ... it's basically just a way for me to keep in touch with you. Whenever I'm online (and the button says 'click for a real person') you can click on it and talk with me in real time. No more fussing and waiting for emails to be answered ... if you have a problem or just wanna talk ... click away. When I am offline, you can use the button to send an email directly to my personal email address, which I will get as soon as I get online. Simple as that. Hopefully it is just one more way to improve the quality of service you get here at Shipper Sanctum. Whew ... long update. In the next few days I will be adding some fabulous pics submitted by your fellow Sanctumites, and hopefully add some new, can't live without features. Thanks for all your patience and understanding while we switch stuff around, and happy snogging.
Updated: December 25, 2000
I trust everyone is enjoying this holiday season ... I'm sure as hell trying to hehe. As a Christmas present to you all I updated! Thanks to Fox Loves Dana, we have some great fan art up in the (what else) Fan Art section. We also have a super new fic written by Piper_Duchovny and Wakojacko. All sorts of stuff to enjoy. Just a reminder that in a few weeks Sanctum will be celebrating it's first birthday, and with it I will be unveiling some new stuff ... if I ever get the time to work on it. (crosses fingers) Oh and I haven't forgotten the calendars ... but I'm having printer problems, so as soon as I get them straightened around, everyone who submitted their addy's will get them. Sorry about the delay. Anyhoo to you and yours a very joyous holiday and a Happy New Year, if I don't update before.
Updated: December 10, 2000
2 new pics added courtesy of Erin ... one in the Fan Art section, and a nice b/w shot in the 'Together' section. Just a reminder to check out the forum ... we have some fun stuff planned for Christmas day and I wouldn't want anyone to be left out. Hope everyone is staying warm, it's hella-cold out. Bundle up!
Updated: December 6, 2000
Thanks to Agustina and Nancye I added some new pics to the David pics, the Gillian pics and the Fan Art section. On a small note, due to time constraints I would much appreciate if we keep pic submissions to David and Gillian centered stuff. I would love to add every pic of Mulder and Scully on the net, to the site, but I just don't have the time. And since this *is* a snog site it's the best way to cut down some of the work. Thanks for your cooperation, and keep the snoggy pics coming.
Updated: December 3, 2000
New look, for a new year. Coming up in January 2001, Sanctum will be celebrating it's one year anniversary. I figured it was time for a change. I'm still not sure I like it, but as always this site is a work in progress. It will grow and change like the tide. Not too much going on in the way of snog, but hopefully after all the holidays are said and done, we'll be able to get our sources up and running again. I know you all are busy this time of year, so am I, so are David and Gillian ... so lack of info. doesn't mean there isn't any. Keep your spirits up and have a great holiday season.
Updated: November 25, 2000
Wow what kind of hell is retail? Don't know? I could tell you LOL. Not too much going on but I do have some new updates to tell you about. I added some new David pics, the S8 promos courtesy of Agustina and a scan from 'Bravo' magazine courtesy of Dani, who also sent in a scan of Gillian from the same magazine. The calendars for the fic contest *should* be done sometime in the first week of December. I honestly hoped to have them done by now, but long work hours and printer troubles set me back. Be sure to check out the forum this week, we have some hot discussions going on about the whole Tea/David situation, as well as a small controversy about POGAD ... feel free to add your $.02.

Updated: November 7, 2000
I added the new mail section to the 'Inner Sanctum', I would like everyone to please submit your email addresses so that other members can reach you outside of the message board. I think it will cut down on a lot of the arguments in the forum. Also new, some David pics from some recent scenes of 'Evolution'... those are courtesy of Agustina. The voting booth is set up in the forum so that everyone can vote in the caption contest and later tonight a voting booth will be set up on the main page to help determine the winner of the reader's choice award for the Fic contest. Make sure you vote only once. Thanks a ton.
Updated: November 5, 2000
HAPPY X-FILES DAY! No real update just wanted to wish everyone a great premiere evening. I love when the new season starts, there is always tons of press. AOL got in on the trend and posted this on their start page. I'm also about to settle down to watch an interview with Robert Patrick on my local news. (he grew up in Ohio) Fun fun ... Results of the fanfic contest will be posted on Friday and the names of the new forum correspondents will be announced tomorrow. If you are in the running ... good luck!
Updated: October 31, 2000
Happy Halloween! In honor of the holiday I updated most of the pic sections. New photos can be found in the 'David' section, the 'Gillian' section, and of course there are a few new ones in the 'Together' section ... most are thanks to the wonderful Agustina. That is pretty much it for now ... oh we have reinstated the caption contest on the forum so be sure to check it out. Judging for the fic contest begins tomorrow and I'm pretty sure the awards are going to be snoggy calenders ... made by me :O) Good Luck!
Updated: October 22, 2000
New pics added to the 'David' section, the 'Gillian' section and the 'Together' section (including a .gif of the famous elevator scene) thanks to various submissions. Not much else to add other than there are some great discussions on the message board, including one about Gillian's 'new boyfriend'. Could it be David? Catch up on all the gossip in the Gillian thread.
Updated: October 15, 2000
Working 12 hour days sucks ass! Ok now that I have that off my chest ... I added some new fics to the Fic Contest Page ... some good stuff. I added an awesome fic by JayCee to the 'Fic' section, it's also a contest submission so be sure to read it. Oh yah, Erin and Agustina have been doing their homework ... both submitted some great pics. Erin sent in a few 'David' pics as well as some great 'FanArt'. She, along with Agustina sent in some really great pics of David and Gillian 'Together'. I just love being able to give you guys some new stuff to look at, so keep the submissions coming in :O)
Updated: October 11, 2000
Well thanks to Agustina we have finished off page 3 and moved on to our 4th page of 'Together' Pics ... some are screen caps of bloopers and a few others are older ep pics and promo shots ... some cool ones though. She also submitted some great Season 8 promo shots of Gillian, which can be found on the last page of 'Gillian' Pics. Don't forget the Fic Contest, I added 2 new, great submissions ... one by Rhiannon (which can also be found in the 'Fic' Section) and one by JayCee ... be sure to check them out. I'm off tomorrow, but have to attend calling hours so I doubt I will update ... my next day off is Monday so hopefully you all will have some snoggy stuff to submit by then. Until then ... keep the snog alive!

I FINALLY GOT TRIPOD TO WORK! YAY! Anyhoo ... a few new things ... first of all and most importantly, a Fanfic contest sponsored by DAGS and Shipper Sanctum! If you are interested in participating, click the banner above for details ...
I also added a great new pic of Gillian from the Scottish Sunday Herald. I love the more dramatic and unusual pics she does ... maybe it's just me. And lastly (for now) I added a feature to the main page, that rotates the main image each time you enter it ... there are 4 images to add a little variety.
Updated: September 28, 2000
A few new fun things added. There is now an interactive fanfic located in the 'Inner Sanctum'. When it's all finished I'm going to post it in the 'Fic' section as the first fic ever written by the members of Sanctum. There are a few more details on the message board if you want to participate. Speaking of fic, I just added a submission from Erin called 'My Sweet Gillian', make sure you read it. Also, a new autobiography has been posted, and you can now read all about the above author, Ms. Erin Blair. I'm waiting anxiously for some more profiles, I want to make Sanctum as homey as possible, and I think that is a great way to start. Again thanks for all your support.
Updated: September 26, 2000
There are quite a few new things in the new section, 'Inner Sanctum', including my autobiography ... I would love for some other people to submit theirs (hint hint) and I added quite a few new pics in the 'Together' section, courtesy of Agustina. A couple are stills of the dance scene from PMP and the others are hugeeee scans from various Season 7 eps ... great collage making pics. As always if you have anything to submit please send it to ShipperSanctum@aol.com
Updated: September 25, 2000
Drumroll please! ... We have a brand new section of Sanctum called ... Inner Sanctum. It will be a sort of 'getting to know you' page, showcasing some autobiographies, a manifesto and a lot of other fun stuff. This is an open call to all members ... if you would like your biography showcased please send a summery of your life and a pic (if possible) to ShipperSanctum@aol.com Also a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Piper ... hope she had a great day ... Check out the new section for details on other stuff soon to be added ...EEEERRRRRRKKKKKKK ... a last minute addition of some pics of Gillian from the NYFF courtesy of Agustina in the 'Gillian' section.
Updated: September 23, 2000
The 'amazing Kipoda' submitted yet another cute pic of Gillian and David, and it can now be found in the 'Together' section. I also added a Season 8 guide to the message board in the 'Episodes' forum. Lots of good stuff going on in the message board these days, so be sure to check it out ...
Updated: September 19, 2000
I added some new pics in the 'Together' section that were submitted by Agustina ... several are of older promo shots and there is a cute pic from the '97 GG's. Also a new rumour was added to the 'Rumour' section, check it out!
Updated: September 18, 2000
Well ... we have 2 new fabulous pics of Gillian and David together, thanks to the amazing Kipoda. They can be found on the last page of the 'Together' pics. Part 4 of 'Expression' is now up in the Fic section, along with the cover to the companion series 'Obsession', which will be coming soon. As always I encourage any submissions you would like to make ...
Updated: September 17, 2000
I added a lovely pic of Gillian from last years Emmy's and FoxLovesDana submitted a great fic ... read it! I also added part 3 of 'Expression', part 4 should be coming soon ... so keep checking back :O)
Updated: September 16, 2000 (afternoon update)
Well since I did the last update at a little over midnight, I have 2 updates in the same day again lol. Anyhoo I added the cover and part 1 & 2 of my new fic 'Expression' to the 'Fic' page. Feedback would be greatly appreciated. This is the first solo fic I have ever written and first time I have actually sat down to write in ages. I'm a bit rusty but hopefully that will all fall away soon. Also I added a manip of Gillian in the 'Fan' art section ... it's one of the new EW pics and I didn't do much but change the background a bit. I think that is all for now, but I'm sure I will be adding more as the day progresses.
Updated: September 16, 2000
OK ... well ... I added 2 new fic covers to the 'Fic' page and 2 new collages to the 'Fan' art page. Also check out the 3rd page of 'Gillian' pics for the EW photos that accompanied the article. I changed the original pic of the cover to a larger one and added 2 new ones of our favorite redhead. One is a solo and the other has RP in it (I took the liberty of taking the text off the pic) I didn't post the Requiem pic or the premiere pic that was also in the issue, but if you want to see them I think you can find them at Haven. On another note I added a new forum to the message board so check it out.
Updated: September 14, 2000 (evening update)
As much as it pains me to see Gillian on the cover of any magazine promoting the show with anyone other than David, I added the new EW cover to the 3rd page of 'Gillian' pics. I personally think she looks great ... she just looks so ... healthy, for lack of a better word. Check it out ...
Updated: September 14, 2000
For the first time in a few weeks I actually had some time to spend online ... so I decided to redo the Sanctum Main page. Let me know what you think about it. I also added 2 collages to the 'Fan' art page done by me ... one is a HOM collage and the other is David/Gillian themed. As always I encourage you to send in any art you are doing ... I love the fact we can showcase so many talented people here. Have a great day!
Updated: September 12, 2000
Well I just added a great fic by Rhiannon_Nicks, where Sanctum has a role! lol ... also there have been several new additions to the 'Together' section of the pics courtesy of Agustina.
Updated: September 7, 2000
Well in my short time online I have managed to add 2 new pics lol. One, a David one, was submitted by Gaiman and the other, in the 'Together' section, was submitted by me. I also updated the poll on the main page. Have a nice day.
Updated: August 30, 2000
I added a chat room ... it's java, so if your browser isn't java enabled, I'm sorry. Let me know how or if you like it. Also I would like to thank all *5* people who sent me a message for DragonLews ... I forwarded them to him and he is very grateful and happy you are enjoying the site. I'm glad to see the message board is picking up ... not much use in having a new Sanctum if no one was going to use it lol.
Updated: August 24, 2000
I added 2 new animated .gif's from Agustina on the last page of 'Together.' Also please please do not forget to send me a message to send to DragonLews ... so far I have gotten 2 and I'm not sending them out until I get at least 10. He basically busted his ass along with me to make this page, and while I get to see how much you enjoy this site everyday ... he doesn't. I just figured it would be a nice thing to do ...
Well now that the new Sanctum is up and running I have to thank a very special person ... If it weren't for DragonLews, this site never would have been built. He coached me along and taught me HTML and was very patient (even through my stupid moments) So, what I would like you all to do, is pleaseeee email him at ShipperSanctum@aol.com and tell him either how much you like the site, hate it, don't give a shit about it .... or whatever. (I will forward the mail to him) Just put Shipper Sanctum in the subject line, and let this dear friend of mine know how much you (hopefully) appreciate his help. Thanks!
Well I did a bit more than I expected ... all the pics from the old Sanctum are now up. Lots of work let me tell you. Now all that's left to do is to move my posts and delete the old Sanctum ... in fact, please have your stuff moved by 2:00pm Eastern Time tomorrow so I can delete the old club. Also the Archives from the old site are now located at the bottom of the rumours section.
Well all the Gillian images from the old Sanctum are up ... they were actually up last night but I was too lazy to update this page lol. There were some new submissions to the fan art page and the David and Gillian pages. I will actually be adding some new Gillian pics that were located in the Snoggy Proof folder and that will put us up over the 100 images mark (in the Gillian section alone). I will probably work on saving and uploading the David pics tonight so I wanna warn you to move anything you want moved tonight or tomorrow. Still working on getting a chat program up and I probably won't stress about that too much till the old Sanctum is down. Again, thanks for all your support.
OK, I was having problems with the message board ... topics were disappearing ... well if anyone else is having the same problem, I figured out how to fix it. You have to click the small red link that says 'show all topics' ... I'm not sure if it's on everyones or just the admins ... but if you want to look for it, it's up by 'My Control Center' and 'Logout.' Also there should be a button that says 'Mark ALL Forums Read,' once you read all the new posts, if you click that all the blue bubbles beside the forums will go away and only appear when there is a new post somewhere. Pretty handy if you ask me. Anyhoo hope that helps someone out. Also the first folder of Gillian pics is now up.
The contents of the second and third snog folders are now posted... and I added a blue border to all the newly submitted pics so they are easier to find.
I added all the pics from the 'Snog' folder from the old site to the 'Together' section (man that was a lot of work) Hopefully I credited the right pics to the right people. I also added some new images, from various sources to 'Together' and 'Fan Art, also some new fic. So is it starting to feel a bit more like home yet? LOL. As of now, the general consensus is that people like the new site ... of course not everyone has the same taste ... hehe... Oh and as for concerns about the message board, once you register it does take about 15 min or so for your account to be activated. So don't sweat if you can't post right away ... it's not a mistake just some technical stuff.
The message board is up and fully functional ... to use and post on it you must register an account. Just click on the "message" button on the main page and when the board pops up, just look around the page for the register section ... (there should be a small red link on the top and bottom)Once registered you are free to post at will. Remember the same rules apply here as the old site but have fun and help make this place a new home for us all.
Well this is the new Sanctum ... hope you like it. Since Excite gave us little other choice but to move, I decided it was time to upgrade totally. Moving out of a little club, and expanding to a whole network of pages. Over the next few weeks, Sanctum will be growing, changing and getting better and better. What you see now is a working copy, helping us to get to where we want to be. Until then sit back and enjoy and let the good times roll.
