Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Illegal Venomoid Petition
I am not certain that I have ever posted a petition link before, but this one I feel VERY strongly about and would appreciate support. Not only does Ray Hoser produce venomoids (not the issue), but he does so in a cruel fashion and downright illegally. Unlike most online petitions, this has been in the works for a while and all contacts have already been made. To demonstrate that this is serious matter that many of us are very adamant about, here is the list of official sponsors for the petition:
Mark O'Shea
Dr. Wolfgang W%u00FCster
David Williams
Dr Bryan Grieg Fry
Shane Hunter
Scott Bice
B.W. Smith
aussiereptilekeeper.com
thereptileroom.org
reptileeducation.com
Australianherps List
AFTCRA.org.au
venomlist.com
venomdoc.com
Save Our Tarantulas
herpetologicalbreedingresearch
Hunter Serpentology Labs
snakegetters.com
crocodileencounters.com.au
This is an impressive list. So please visit the petition site at http://www.aussiereptileclassifieds.com/phpPETITION/
I am certain the once you read over it and understand just what type of "person" we are dealing with, then we will have your support. There is a tremendous amount of information on that page. The entire right hand sidebar is all articles written relating to this man's practices. This is an international effort with herpetologists, herpetoculturists, scientists, and herpetological organizations from across the globe coming together in one common goal; to stop the illegal practices of ONE MAN, Raymond Hoser. Thanks so much everyone.

The interesting thing is that this is not about venomoids or the ethical arguments regarding them. This is about hoser's methods of creating them. Both sides of the venomoid debate are rallying around this petition.

Peaked my curiosity
And I found this site.
http://www.venomousreptiles.org/articles/55
Scroll down and you will see the pics of what looks like a home procedure. This has to be one of the saddest things that I have seen in awhile. :
