2010 News Two-thousand ten, or Twenty-ten, however you say it, the new year is here. And for yet one more year, I ame her to share with you the "generous" art of Victor Rinaldi As I had mentioned previously, I am running more and more often inot people that will steal Victor's art and try to make a buck off of it. True, I cannot stop determined thieves, but I can hamper them. So, with this update I have started tagging the art on the website, -- starting with the art posted for you viewing today. Sorry to have to do this, but it is the simpiliest of my options. Not much else in the way of news to discuss this time around.

Enjoy them and do keep coming back And may this yet bring to you all much joy, and peace in your hearts. |

2009 News This update wraps up 2009, and year six for the website. I want to thank all the fans that continue coming and that support Victor and the website. I especially want to give a warm and hearty THANK YOU to those of you that have helped me financially with the website, Thank You again. By no means are things perfect, but your help is helping me keep this site going for yet another couple of months. Not to sound like a beggar, but for any of you that have the means, do consider supporting the website. (See link info in Oct. update.) This is a labor of love to do this for all of you, but one that does not pay for itself. But with that said. I do want to wish all of you the best in this Holiday Season. May all your wishes and dreams come true. Next year is going to bring some changes to this website... I have to address the issue of bandwidth thieves, and image thieves. These are the people that are profiting off of the work of Victor and myself. You know who you are: Those that direct link to the images for your own websites, and those of you are that illicitly stealing the art and profiting in other ways. I am going to do what I have to do stop you. For you, the fans, I do hope you understand why I am going to make the changes. I would hope that you do not see the changes as detrimental to your veiwing experience And, of course, I always hope to hear from you, the fans... Updates I want to welcome a new colorist to the website with this update. Clifford Lewis has his own gallery in the Art Colored By section with fifty-two (52) new pieces of colored art. Do check it out. Once again, have a wonderful ending to this year, and may the next start off bright.... |
| October 1st, 2009 News The little goblins and ghoulies are to soon be upon us. Yes, Summer is over and with the fall here, along comes another update to this site. A few notes from me with this update. My old computer took a dive and I've gone and done what was ssupposed to be an upgrade. Now I have a better understanding why Mac People are so loyal to Apple. However, with this upgrade I had to code the update by hand. And while I hope there are no errors (I never seem to find them all), if you see any, please do let me know so that I can fix them in a quick and timely manner. And now something I have been trying to avoid for a while... While I have been doing the great majority of the work on this site, in the way of coding it and getting it out there for you to see, I have also been paying all the bills out of pocket. But with a change in employment, things are going to be very tight -- maybe even impossible -- in the coming future. I may not be able to keep this site up and running with out some help. That's where you, the fans, could be a big part in keeping this site going. Everything so far has been given to you freely, and while I am not going to start charging you to visit, I would hope that some of you have it in your heart to contibute some money towards the operating costs. If you are willing, or able, to contibute anything at all (every dollar counts). Please send whatever you can, via Paypal, to mysterybox@hotmail.com Thanks... Updates This update adds nearly thirty (30) new pieces to the Black & White Art section. Have fun finding some new favorites in the gallery. Enjoy your time here... |
| August 1st, 2009 News The Hot August Nights are upon us! Probably the time of the year when most ouf you hide during that day and enjoy the company of family and friends after the Sun has gone down. Of course, while you are spending your days out of the heat, feel free to visit the site and take a look around. Just don't melt as you look at these pieces of hot art. (A note. I've rushed to get this update done on time. As such, I have not been able look look it over and do much trouble shooting. If you find any errors, please do let me know so I can fix the problem(s).)

Yes, while you wax your Woodie, you can be thinking about the bounty of beautiful busty babes that Victor has to show you this time around... (On a side note. The August 1st update may be a little late. I will be in San Diego in late July. I will try to have the update up on time, but if it is a few days late, please, do be understanding.) Updates This time around the update is in the Black and White Art section. Gallery Seven is now open for you to look at. There are more than thirty (30) new pieces added to the gallery for you viewing pleasure. Have fun looking |
| April 1st, 2009 News It's April Fools Day!. But all joking aside. It's time for an update. (Yeah!) Not much in the way of news this time around, so I will not bore you with pointless drivel. Updates New art is in Blitz's colors. Enjoy all the wonderous there is to see. This update, however, may seem like a joke to you folks, but it is not I lost my database that tells me waht has been up on the site already. Not completely, but there are some holes in it. One being the list of art for the colored pieces in Blitz's Gallery So I am not exactly sure what I put up before, or not. So, as it is, there are more than thirty (30) new (or not so new) pieces to look at. Enjoy them all. |
| February 1st, 2009 News Welcome to 2009!. Okay, so the new year started last month, but it is a new year for this website. Yep, it's the start of year six for this website. Thank you one and all for continuing to visit. We are past the half-way point towards the first decade for the site. As I have said would be the case, this site continues to evolve. I want to give my sincerest thanks to Stray Dog for all the help he has given me in the creating the new look, and working, of the navigation. It may look the same superficially, but this is the way I had wanted it to work from the beginning. The will be a little less clicking,and that much more time for you to look at the art. As you will see, some things have moved around, and more pages added. Many of these new pages are a work in progress and will be added to as the content becomes available for viewing. I believe however that you will enjoy what you see when all is ready. I believe the problems that plagued some people viewing the galleries is solved for good. If anyone still sees flickering thumbnails, please let me know what image(s) and what browser you are using. Thanks. Updates This update is a little different than normal. It is broken up in four sections over two galleries. The first part is in Art Colored By: Buffy. Unfortunately Buffy has taken an extended leave of absence from this site. And while I have been hoping that she will come back, I don't want to sit forever on the few remaining, unseen, pieces of her art that I have. So there are five new pieces in her gallery. And until she does return, I will leave her gallery permanently open. Update part two is in the new Misc. Art gallery. There are thirty -- new to the website -- pieces in this gallery. Stray Dog has created sixteen images for the 3-D section. To best see these you will need the classic Red/Blue 3D glasses. If you don't have any, or cannot find them anywhere, you can order a "free" (just the cost of a self-addressed stamped envelope) pair from here: http://www.rainbowsymphony.com/freestuff.html. Follow the intructions on the page and make sure that you specify Anaglyph 3D Glasses. It's simple. The Captions section gathers together a few pieces of art that people have created stories around. And the Concepts section has a couple of pieces of art that Victor created to help storyboard TV shows her worked on. I hope you enjoy. |

News There's not a whole lot to say this time around. Not yet that is. There is a secret project in the works that I think many of you will find both interesting and enjoyable. So keep your eyes open,and when it's time, I will share with you what this is. Some of you with eagle eyes have already noticed and addition to the site. It's not ready to go at the moment, but within the next couple of months it will be ready for you to explore. I heard from a couple of people that there were some problems with the roll-over images. These seemed to be problems with the images flickering back and forth between the thumbnail and the roll-over. I believe I have the error that caused this fixed, but if you continue to see it, please let me know. Updates Black and White Art -- Gallery 6 is open and updated. There are thirty -- new to the website -- pieces in this gallery.... |
| October 1st, 2008
News Well, I have only heard from a few people about the new thumbnails in the galleries, but it seems to be approved of, so I will be keeping it, and right now I am in the process of expanding it into the other galleries. I keep trying to make this site better for you, but if I do not hear anything, I do not know if I am actually acomplishing my goal. So do take a moment and let me know what you think of the current layout, and what you do and don't like. After all, this website is for you, the fan, to explore and enjoy An as always, if I have made any errors in the pages (anything not showing up, or showing up wierd), do let me know so that I can fix it right away. Updates Fan Colors -- Other Fans is open and updated. There are thirty-five -- new to the website -- pieces in this gallery.... |
| August 1st, 2008
News This month continues the work I have been doing to make this website easier for you to use. I think that giving you the opportunity to see the art without having to click on the link will accomplish this. Of course, if you are using Internet Explorer, you will need to allow the Active X control to work. I don't know what it is, but IE is very picky about how it shows the new look of the Gallery. The page will still work as it used to if you choose not to allow the Active X control. If you choose to view the gallery as I intend it to be, give the page a moment to load (as the thumbnails may not show up immediately), and let me know what you think of it. Updates Black and White -- Gallery Five is open and updated. There are more than thirty -- new to the website -- pieces in this gallery.... Enjoy the new art. |

News Okay, so this is a day early, but I won't be able to do my normal midnight update tomorrow. I figure it's better to give early and not hear several messages about why the update is late. There is a slight update to the way I am showing off the galleries. I realized that with the colored art I have been cheating some of the visitors and the artists with how I have all the art under one thumbnail. This is an issue when it comes to the art work colored by fans. Sometimes a coilorist does several variations on one piece, or several colorists do the same piece. With my having put all the colored versions of a piece under one link sometimes a piece (or several) are never seen by the masses. So I have fixed this with the just updated All Others gallery. Each piece of colored art is linked individually. No more hunting through pages to find out if there is more to see. All the version, and variations, will be on the gallery page grouped together for ease of veiwing. That is unless a coloring makes a piece of art so differnt and distinct that it is a wholly new piece. In which case the new art will be title and linked to the place where it would now belong. I hope you like finding some things that you may have missed in the past. As always, you can find Victor's auctions at: NaughtyBids (Seller ID Rinaldi-Art.com). Or at eBay (Seller ID Catadino) Remember, the best way to support Victor, and this website, is to buy his art. Updates Fan Colors -- All Others is open and updated. There are more than thirty -- new to the website -- pieces in this gallery.... |

News Happy April Fools Day! All joking aside, this update brings good news and bad news. The good news is for you, the visitor, the fan, and the collector. Ebay has for a long time now had a problem with Victor's art. They have repeatedly cancelled his auctions for no apparent reason. The last auction was removed less then ten minutes after posting. As Victor has put it, "They have slashed about half my auctions in the last couple of weeks… anything that may be too suggestive, like a puffy nipple or plump puss, seems to get the ax...." This lead to a few auctions being listed with large blurred areas over the "offending areas". Well that didn't appease the so called "ebay police, and they got tough. Because of this, for the foreseeable future, there will be auctions of only the most, "totally non-offensive pin-up drawing, from time to time," on ebay. This is a good thing for you. Victor has decided to list his art on NaughtyBids (Seller ID Rinaldi-Art.com). Because of NaughtyBids relaxed selling rules, Victor will be able to sell a greater variety of art, with image ranging from the Nice, to the Very Naughty. And, with no Buy It Now, you, the fan that never seems to catch an ebay auction, now have a chance of winning. Take a look at the listings (you need to be a registered user) and bid once, bid often, bid until you win. Oh, I did mention that there was bad news. Well, the bad news is solely for ebay. In having made judgement about Victor's art, ebay is now going to lose some money. Oh well... Updates Black and White Gallery Four is now open with this update. There are more than forty -- new to the website -- pieces in this gallery. Enjoy finding the new art, and looking at old favorites... |
| February 1st, 2008
News Welcome to the new year. For me this starts the fifth year of this site. Thanks to you, and your continued patronage, Victor has continued to create many wonderful pieces of art. Remember though, it is your purchasing of his art that keeps him going, and this website up and running. So please, buy often, buy many, and buy at prices that reflect the time and effort put into the art and your love for what you see. With your backing, this site will be around for at least five more years. Updates Blitz Color Gallery Two is the focus of this update. With this colorist's prolific output, I had to show off his work this time around. And with almost forty -- new to the website -- pieces, I am sure that you will find something new and exciting... |
