Pieces of FOI History
Screenshots of the first two FOI related sites on the internet: Lyceum of Isis of the Stars (1994) and the first Fellowship of Isis central site, which was based in London (1995) have been uploaded to the "FOI Firsts on the World Wide Web" page. These are a real piece of FOI History!

The Original Website of Isis of the Stars Lyceum
Here is a link to the wayback machine/internet archive which displays a page from the Isis of the Stars website, created by Starsheen. Olivia said that Starsheen's website brought more people to the Fellowship of Isis at that time, then had joined through any other venue previously. Starsheen's lyceum website was the first FOI related site on the internet. It was published in 1994.

The Original FOI Central Site - London
Here is a bit of FOI History, a link to the Internet Archive, which shows the original FOI Central Site, that was first produced by FOI members in London. The first FOI Central Site went online in 1995. This site remained the one and only central site until 1999.
The Fellowship of IsisThe site seems simplistic by our standards today, but one has to remember back then, everything had to be painstakingly programmed by hand, one pixel at a time.

Changing Faces of the Temple
Eight new photos of the Temple of Isis at Clonegal Castle have been added to Fellowship of Isis Central site maintained by the Circle of Isis.
ArchDruidess Minette Quick, Hon. Sec. of the Circle of Brigid writes: “I have just sent off a mammoth version of Changing Scenes which Olivia and I worked up just yesterday. It is brilliant. I must say what is going on in the Temple and often the full ramifications of what she has done, probably almost in trance during the week, are not clear until we both talk at length about it all and have to get it recorded and described! … My server seems very busy today and wont let me attach any more files! I still need to send you the photograph of the Aquarian Altar dedicated to Amaterasu. I may have to do it separately.”
We have loaded up the eight photos and all the commentary onto the site, including the description of the Altar of Aquarius, without the new picture. The photo for this altar will come soon!
Heartfelt thanks to Olivia and to Minette for creating these reports of the updates and changes Olivia had made to the Temple of Isis at Clonegal Castle.
