I haven't read all the threads in this post, but it sounds like you want to set something up exactly like Cumberbatchweb, which suggests you guys didn't know it was there

Nah, knew of there long before this place started, lol. I enjoy that one far more than Sherlockology (which has gone off track lately).
Cumberbatchweb is not really an interactive site which was what I had in mind.

Aaah cool.

I'd love to get on board that idea. I've done some website management / forum moderating / etc so happy to help

I totally dig this idea! Honestly, Cumberbitch doesn't exactly make my feminist soul sing, but I've been wiling to make the exception for Benedict. I really dug what he said though and how he saw it that way. I love the idea for the Cumberbabes site. Did anything ever come of it? I would love to help out, I'm just not very computer savvy when it comes to actually creating a site, though it's on my list of things I'd love to learn to do.

I just saw "The Mysterious Benedict Society" by Trenton Lee Stewart in a bookshop.
Never heard of it, it's a children book, there are four other parts.

I just thought, that is the perfect name for an appreciation group .

I submitted my query to that woman who makes these dolls here http://pepeluiv.tumblr.com/
I asked her to include me as well in her list.. She sent me a mail and informed me that she would be able to mail them by April/May as she already has a lot of orders. These are the price details that she gave me.. (I asked for Sherlock n John only although she has Moriarty n others too )
"Hi Monita,

I charge $53 for a sherlock doll and $31.5 for a John doll, postage would cost $7~12. Any other question, please feel free to ask "

They're a little expensive if I convert the price into Indian currency but I guess I would love to avail something like this definitely

Hello Guys:

Sorry I've not been on this post in a while, but I have actually done something about it. I bought a domain name cumberbabes.com and I've started to design various pages for it. It's still a work in progress but it's going to have quite in depth pages about his work (more so than is on cumberbatchweb) but will also have it's own forum a bit like this one except purely for Benedict discussion.

Anyway, you can check it out here:

http://www.cumberbabes.com

EDIT: The front page doesn't have anything on it yet, but if you go to the TV & Film sections, I've started developing them.

Wow, how cool.
I never wanted to be a "bitch". That's not my style. I can totally picture what a cumberbitch looks like.

Wow!! What an effort! It's a nice website
I registered for the Cumberbabes mailing list as well!

SusiGo · November 27, 2012 1:18 pm

Very well done, Boss. I registered at one. Better Babe than Bitch.

Mattlocked · November 27, 2012 2:59 pm

And no facebook account needed! Perfect!
I hope the "Forum" link will lead us here - or will there be another one?

Tantalus · November 27, 2012 3:36 pm

SH,

I am most definitely not a Cumberbabe (or any other type of babe), but I looked at your website. Looks like it will be very professionally done (like our lovely forum!). Maybe I should hire you to update my farm website...

harleyq · November 27, 2012 5:30 pm

SH,

You website looks amazing and I know it'll just get better as you develop it. That's so cool that you took the bull by the horns and did this! And, Tantalus we are all Cumberbabes if we want to be.
