Now I don't remember exactly when I first opened a crew site. It would have been around the time that I opened Fantabulistic Petz (aka Oasis) which was December of 2002. So my crew site would have come shortly after, possibly in January of 2003, but I'm not entirely sure, could've been later on in 2003.
At first my crew site was Fantazzled Kennels which brought about my prefix of FK.
I kept the geocities site quite a while after I got my own domain, mainly because I was too lazy to make a new crew site. But on July 20th, 2005, I renamed Fantazzled Kennels to Shanty, and moved the site onto my domain.
I still use the prefix FKs however and consider my personal kennel name to still be Fantazzled (for petz adopted from me, especially hexies, I prefer that people use the prefix of Xoops, although FKs is fine too).

There was a lilac colored layout at one time in the EXACT same format as the current layout (seen on the geocities site linked above). Although instead of a cat, it was a dog, and obviously instead of the pink, it was purple. And if you couldn't guess, the second layout, is the one still up.
Shanty Version 1
I don't have a picture of this one. But I believe it was varying shades of blue and white. There was a top frame (for links) and a bottom frame. Top graphic featured my dogz Apollo, Grey-Eye, and Black, and my catz Kristopher.

Shanty Version 2
Inline frame, links as an image map in the top graphic. Featured my dogz Crayola and Rabbit, and my catz Morphine. This is my second favorite layout :D
Duration: July 3rd, 2006, to September 2nd, 2007
Shanty Version 3
No picture, barely even worth a mention. It was green and white, left and right frame. Looked like shit. Never opened for the public (Shanty was on a mini hiatus while I worked on crew petz graphics).

Shanty Version 4
Simple but alright (much better than the previous). I got lazy and didn't really want to do too much work, maybe next time. Left, top, and bottom frames. Links on top, side graphic in the left. Ah yes and as you can see, purple, blue, and white. Featured my petz Bedouin, Tad, and Prancer.
Duration: December 20th, 2007, to June 11th, 2009
Shanty Version 5
Inline frame, links were little symbols at the top of the page and the pictures on the right were mouse over links to the crew pages. I decided to go with another backyard/house theme and used pink this time around ^^ Featured, my petz Smith, Mick, Oberon, and Therese.

Shanty Version 6
Current layout. No more frames, and I made the site compatible across all devices! Featured my petz Makoto, Xoops, Carrots, and Delphinium
