The Samurai Archives has been through a few URLs over the years.  The original URL was essentially an IP address followed by ~kitsuno while it was hosted on R. Noelle's home server.

===The Big Crash===
    
Because the traffic was getting to be too much, the website was moved to <nowiki>http://samurai.bigsitecity.com/</nowiki> sometime in 2000.  It was hosted there until the host server mysteriously crashed without warning in late July or early August of 2001.  Because some images were not backed up, there was some irretrievable losses, including some clan kamon and genealogy images. Repeated attempts to contact the host (bigsitecity.com) got us nowhere, but since it was a free hosting site, there was not much we could do, so we moved yet again.

===Angelfire to Samurai-Archives.com===
    
The next URL was http://www.angelfire.com/realm/kitsuno01/.  The Samurai Archives stayed there until samurai-archives.com was purchased in June, 2002, and the new website was set up with the hosting company [http://www.hostway.com Hostway] in early December, 2002.
