Where are all those images and pictures from? Unless explicitly noted otherwise, all these images - as well as the antique prints and paper that the images were scanned from - are the property of 'Possum Network. We've combed the known (Opossum) universe looking.

What is PaperMatch? PaperMatch is the sponsor of Possum Network. They are a Paper Matching Service, which means they'll look for antique prints and old paper that match your interests and passions. You like mushrooms; they'll forage for mushrooms. Check out their HomePage.

Technically speaking now, what is the Possum Network? Yes, we suspected there were some techies out there. Set theoretically speaking, the Possum Network is a superset of the WEB. Which is a fancy way of saying that everything that can be gotten to in the WEB can be gotten to from Possum Network, but not everything found in the Possum Network can be gotten to from the WEB.

For example, there are any number of little possums that simply can't be seen or appreciated from the WEB. You just can't find them there.

If you are a business that gets into trouble because you are too technical for your own good, you might want to consult with the writers at Common Noun Consulting. Common Noun will help you get across your complicated ideas in ways that those who need to understand will understand.

What's Possum Network's position on other networks like Microsoft Network? Microsoft Network: Small Potatoes. Possum Network: Sweet Potatoes (the proof).

How can you put things about hunting dear little possums up on Possum Network? We're doing our best to give a complete picture of opossum culture. Hunting is a part of that. An interesting part.

I'm looking for the page on "Guess What Happened When the Possum Crossed the Road." Well if there were something interesting to be learned from all those jokes we might add a page. There are lots of things in this life that could be said, and maybe a bunch of them just shouldn't be.

How come you don't have more about orphaned opossums and the ethical treatment of animals? This is a site about opossum culture. We do have a small FAQ about some of these issues. And as time goes on, we may be able to link folks to experts in these matters. But this is not Possum Network's focus.

How can I become involved with Possum Network? Well, the involvement is evolving. There are several ways:

	If you want to be on the Opossum map of the world, send the WEB Master, Freddie Possum, some e-mail. Once Possum Watch is up and running, he'll put you on the map according to your zipcode. The map will be anonymous. No one will know your name or address.
	If you are a business or organization that uses the name Possum or Opossum, or that is somehow involved with opossums, let us know. We'll put you on the map also, along with your name.
	If you are a kid and think someone is a member of the Possum Network, say Hi, Possum to them. If they respond, Hi, Possum well, then they are. You don't have to be on the Internet to do this.
