domainDeep Submerge was established by Icera in March 2005. The directory was created for the sole reason of bringing together active and/or well thought out Sailormoon sites that still exist on the web. Sailormoon sites have become a dwindling breed, especially as the years go by and the original fans that grew up with the show are growing up. Deep Submerge is the first directory dedicated only to list quality Sailormoon related sites. This directory is called Deep Submerge in dedication to Sailorneptune. She is portrayed as being artistic, beautiful, and elegant. To parallel, this directory wishes to model the example of Sailorneptune by personifying her qualities. Deep Submerge is one of Sailorneptune's signature attacks (view here).
creditCredit goes to all the owners and their lovely Sailormoon sites; DS wouldn't be a directory if owners did not submit their sites. Layout was created by Icera. Sailormoonlinks.com was also a source of inspiration, although my ideal for this directory is to remain constantly active and provide only quality sites. Sprites come from Lycentia's. And last but not least the amazing script SimpleDir by Tara.

frequently asked questionsHow do you choose sites to be in or out of the directory? I've stated it before...I don't find that this directory is "elite" because I don't think that I'm "elite" in my skills in designing/coding. It's unfair for me to judge something if I'm not proficient in it already. If you read the Sailormoon Goodness statement and the rules I basically outline what you need to be a part of this directory. Obviously there are exceptions to every single site, since no single site is the same, so rules can always be changed/altered (think of it as Pirates of the Caribbean..."the rules are more like guidelines"). If you still have questions/issue with this policy feel free to contact me.How come you let his/her site in, but not mine? Did you read the rules? Most likely your site/application did not qualify if you did not read all the rules. How come you let in one of my sites, but not this one? Surprisingly, not all your sites may be the same quality as you think they may be. And just because you think one of your sites is already listed, does not mean I will be any easier on your other sites if you just slap it together last minute. Where do you get your images/brushes/designs from? All layouts/graphics are created by me unless otherwise stated. Any pre-made brushes/images used will be found in the credit section via About. If there are no credits for brushes it means I used a font that looks like a brush. Images are usually scanned in by me unless otherwise noted. My site is listed, but I don't remember joining? I enjoy surfing through Sailormoon sites, so if I find a well done one I will add it to the directory automatically. Your contact information was not added since you yourself did not join. If you want to join (to recieve important update information and a networked community) you can do so by emailing me. Your site summary was directly taken from your introduction statement on your site. Do I need to link Deep Submerge? It's common courtesy to link back to a site that links you back so I'll let you decide for yourself if you should link this directory or not. I submitted my site 2 weeks ago, how come it's not listed yet? Deep Submerge updates once a month, usually on the 1st. Please have patience. If after the 1st of the month, your site is still not listed, feel free to contact me. It could be that your site did not qualify to be listed. What image did you use on your layout; where can I find it; how come I can't find it anywhere? The misconception is that my layout images are full, unaltered images (usually from the artbooks) so when I send people who request for the original image, they become rather irked that it's not the exact same image. I do a lot of editting to make an original look seamless in another way. If you want the original image feel free to email me. I will not send you my altered layout graphics. What's a good way to make sure I can be listed at Deep Submerge? Read all the rules. Look at all the other sites listed in the category you wish your site to be in and see if your graphics/content are the same quality. You can also try various Web Page Reviews to help point out your mistakes.
