Art.Net is a non-profit web-based artist collective of more than 450 artists, poets, musicians, painters, sculptors, animators, hacker artists, and other creative people from around the world, aimed at helping artists share their works on the World Wide Web. Also known as Art on the Net, the site was established in June, 1994 with a manifesto and statement of purpose as an Internet art project site and online art gallery. Artists create and maintain studio web spaces on the site and gallery pages where they show their works and share information about themselves. Artists are also encouraged to collaborate and to help each other promote and improve their art. They can learn how to curate and show their art work via the web. Several member artists also teach art in their studio spaces located on Art.Net.〔(''Life Drawing Lesson I, Gesture - The Foundation of Figurative Art'' ) by Rebecca Alzofon accessed on 13 October 2006〕〔(Master Printer, Sheila Marbain demonstrates the execution of creating an encaustic monoprint ) in an (Art.Net Gallery Room ), accessed on 13 October 2006〕〔(''Silk Monoprinting'' ) by Sheila Marbain accessed on 13 October 2006〕 Art.Net is open to new artists and new areas.

The break-in was discovered "while in process" and Art.Net immediately responded by turning off all Internet services except for web access via httpd.

The art image file was moved to another filename and by way of the Apache webserver running on Art.Net, accesses to the original file name were redirected back to the offending website's sendmail port. The offending machine went down in a few minutes due to the overload of sendmail connections to their site. A few days later the offending link to the art was removed from the porn site. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Art.Net is a non-profit web-based artist collective of more than 450 artists, poets, musicians, painters, sculptors, animators, hacker artists, and other creative people from around the world, aimed at helping artists share their works on the World Wide Web.
