About this site

The ContaxG site was created and run by Glen Campbell from 1999 to 2012. At its peak, the site had more than 5,000 members and was receiving several hundred new images per day.

This site contains photographs and details restored from a backup made in 2012, some months before the system crash that closed the site. About 60% of the images referenced in the database have survived. Only users with surviving images are listed.

There are some limitations:

• The maximum image size is 600 pixels. While probably not enough for so called pixel peepers I feel it is sufficient to appreciate the quality of an image, while discouraging the wholesale copying of the site. This size also works well on mobile devices.
• Any links to 'full size versions', similar images or external websites aren't active and won't work.

The original ContaxG site also contained 'documents' (essays or notes on various subjects) and 'polls' (a voting system). These items might be added at a future date.

This archive site has been created with Glen's blessing. I hope you enjoy browsing the images and re-living some of the magic that was the original ContaxG site.
