Hello from an Ancient Singer
Posted: 01 Jan 2026, 04:28
Hello!
Been meaning to post here since I joined... but I have been fins-deep in website code for myself as I work on finalising my collection showcase so I can get back into working on photos/scans for archiving. Many people from the days of yesteryear on The Undercaves or Arkonviox would know me as Whitefin, the name of my ancient prehistoria cetacean character—I'm also known by my nickname Cally. One of the Old Guard, I've been around in the burgeoning days of the Ecco community, and even successfully contacted Ed back in the very late 90s regarding the hidden glyphs in Origin Beach which gave us some lore that had not been known until then.
I'm also one of the members of the Media Restoration project here on Ecco Online.
The crazy one who does things like scan an entire vinyl record or B2 sized store poster:
As I finish my own site I'll be diving into this project again heavily since they go hand-in-hand; this will include finally getting high-res (600DPI; fully cleaned, fully colour balanced) scans of the Ecco comics in circulation in addition to a lot of game scans that don't exist or are really poor in quality.
Good to be actively back.
