Comments: U state that this is a site for Johnny Depp but wont let other people show the work we thought was wonderful that you are doing.. Tell me selfish do you have permission from him to use his picture’s. No I don’t think so, so why do you make a butt out of yourself by saying that we who take one picture are internet thieves. You are the actual thief , and a Bi*** for not sharing.. take this site and shove it, I bet me and my daughter are bigger fans than you anyways…. BLAH
Please read my answer, Susie:
Hello Susie,
let me explain this, please read till the end and you’ll understand:
I do not say, that those who take the pictures are thieves. Feel free to grab them all. I myself asked for every single one, but only those posting them in boards. I am one of those saying, that every pic available should be allowed to be used by every fan in the world. I did not pay for them, and I do not own them. The photographers do.
But what I paid for is the WEBSPACE.
I am a student and have 5 siblings,
First of all I wish everyone a belated happy new year….let’s hope we get a lot new stuff of Johnny to see, visitors won’t leave us and Johnny and his fans will be of a good health!
I spent the last weeks with converting the whole site to valid xhtml 1.1 –
so every site should be valid now.
You can test this by clicking onto the little xhtml button below the stats and disclaimer:
If you should see a site somewhere which gets the result that it is not valid, it would be of a great help if you could send me the link.
into the Johnny detailed section I added info sites about family and fiancees,
they will have some more info added within the time, I just did not find more.

“Buy the ticket, take the ride.” These are the words that echo in my skull. The words that our Good Doctor lived by and, by God, died by. He dictated, created, commanded, demanded, manipulated, manhandled and snatched life up by the short hairs and only relinquished his powerful grasp when he was ready. There’s the rub. When he was ready. That is what we are left with. We are here, without him. But in no way are we left with nothing, far from it. We have his words, his books, his insights, his humor and his truth. For those of us lucky enough to have been close to him, which often meant rather lengthy and dangerous occasions that would invariably lead to uncontrollable fits of laughter, we have the memory of his Cheshire grin leading us wherever he felt we needed to go. Which, by the way, was always the right direction, however insane it may have seemed. Yes, the doctor always knew best. I have, seared onto my brain, the millions of hideous little adventures that I was blessed enough to have lived through with him and, frankly, in certain instances, blessed to have lived through. He was/is a brother, a friend, a hero, a father, a son, a teacher, a partner in crime. Our crime: fun. Always, fun.
In December 1995 I was vacationing in Aspen, Colorado….. The f**king town is just lousy with “beautiful people.” My first instinct was to stay inside and drink grog,

I arrived in New York City late, somewhere around 11.30pm, from Europe. With just enough jet lag to keep my peepers wide open for one too many hours – my brain crowded with the threat of Mr Sun’s arrival, knowing that soon he’d nudge me out of my snooze and into the world. I shut my eyes tight with the hope that he might be tardy.
Woke up the following morning – or rather, a couple of hours later – with a very prompt Mr Sun stabbing through the black protection of my eyelids. The rotten bastard had found me.
I pitched and tossed and turned and spun – doing my best to avoid him – until I just couldn’t take it anymore I forced the heavy lids up and open and stared the eyeballs straight into the beastly light. I dunked my face into the pot of hot coffee and dove out the window and thus began the day. Things to do… Up Awake Onward. Forward.
I made my way downtown to St Mark’s Place to a bookstore of the low-down, the lowbrow, the bohemian, the subterranean-counterculture-drop-out types. My mission – to get my paws on some fine literature suitable for… well, you’ll find out. First and foremost, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by the good doctor himself, Dr Hunter S Thompson – a must for anyone and everyone… especially anyone in need of a serious excursion from their four walls.
First of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE from all of the JDorg staff.
Secondly, I have been extremely busy today, spending hours of time updating the site just for you.
There is a BRAND NEW SECTION in the fanart called Costumes!!! Here you can find various creations made by fans who’ve made an item similar to a character or Johnny himself. The first addition is a full Jack Sparrow costume made by Elodie!!
The Wallpapers have also been lovingly sorted into the following categories:
POTC
Movies
Real Life
These 250(ish) wallpapers were sorted so that JDorg is simpler for you!!
I hope that my many hours of work are the greatest christmas gift that I could give to you all.
Enjoy!!
Merry Christmas from Catherine!!
The first pic of Johnny Depp and Keith Richards in the movie PotC3 appeared at comingsoon.net!
SPOILER CONTENT BELOW!
Keith Richards has a short cameo to play Captain Jack Sparrow’s father in Pirates of the Caribbean 3 – at worlds’ end.
The pic was taken from Martin Klebba’s personal collection and sent to comingsoon.net. To not make him any trouble we have taken down the link to the site having it, but there are already so many sites having it uploaded.
A short description of what I saw:
a Keith Richards in a 1:1 copied Jack Sparrow look. That makes not only me a bit said: isn’t our beloved Jack Sparrow the individual pirate we always thought, but just a cheap copy of his dad? We exspected a bit more individualism!
Since nobody wanted to be in the staff as a news staffer,
I decided to ask carezza, if she’d like to take over that job.
I really expected a “no, too much work”,
but she said YES!!!
So here she is, our dear new news staffer CAREZZA!!
Thank you so much for your help, Carezza!
