International Association of Web Artists
This group has grown! It had only 11, mostly young people, in December of 1997, when I created my web pages. It now boasts 30 memebers including 8 or the original founders and the rest a mixture of amateur and professional artists/web designers
There stated mission is to:

1. Promote high ethical and aesthetic standards for the World Wide Web
2. Assist web artists to learn, improve and market their craft
3. Introduce new people to the Internet and the World Wide Web

Why not join them? I'm considering it myself.
