A short and quick history about Casaboontha.com
Casaboontha.net was established in March 2001 as means to share and trade among the KISS fan?community.
It al started out in the 80's when I designed cassette and video covers the old-fashioned way. Making photo copies of pictures and logo's and cutting and pasting them together. In the mid-90's when digital dtp software became more available, and I got a hold of a scanner and a decent printer I started doing these digital. The next step in trading came among us with the introduction of the CD Burner.
With CD's trading live shows became more popular than ever. The intrnet helped to connect fans worldwide and build trading communities. Hopping on that bandwagon and with broadband becoming available I decided to put the first version of my site online with about 30 covers and a tradelist.
With that interest grew, as did my CD collection and ofcourse with that also my covers collection. Trading and cover requests became a daily practice in 2002 and 2003, it helped that the DVD Burner was widely available from then on.
At that point I decided it was time to have my own domain and to make sure I had plenty of space online to store the then 250+ covers collection. Today more than 500 covers are avialable. Most of them KISS and some of other bands like Cheap Trick, Mötley Crüe and Van Halen. Although the pace of creating covers is not that high anymore I try to achieve the best possible since I create them for my own collection first.
