OVVLvverk maintains a very strict policy of minimal commentary on our posts, which we relax somewhat whenever we feel like it.
We wish to thank the keeper of the owls in our particular Amsterdam Zoo, Ms.Sally McKay, and our special Oberluftenant, L.M., and her little dog too. OVVLvverk's parent blog is sally mckay and L.M. jepic is like our parent.
Rob C. is our spiritual godfather, an inspiration to us all. His blog, The Endless Parade of Excellence, is exactly 1 thousand years old.
This site is hosted by Digital Media Tree, an extremely excellent server.
Our style is an openly acknowledged rip-off/homage to an exquisite image-based Contemporary-Art blog, VVORK. Look at it.
The Add-Free-Blog logo is pure co-incidence.
Mark Frauenfelder of BoingBoing has encouraged us.
OVVLvverk makes extensive use of Wikipedia and Flickr.
OVVLvverk's very first image was the Silver Athenian tetradrachm coin, posted October 17/18 2007 .
This ancient design was adapted for the modern
Greek 1 Euro coin.

This image appeared on October 16 2007 on sally mckay and L.M., with a discussion thread which led to the creation of OVVLvverk.
A brief note from the Editors of OVVLvverk:
This upcoming weekend is the first anniversary of OVVLvverk.
We have a few special things planned, Please stay tuned.
