These are some of the best websites on animation that are either unsung or just have been wiped out from the internet. Some of these sites are no longer on the internet. That is why I’ve provided a link to their archived site. I've also included the evolution to each site. Some of the evolution links may have images and material inaccessible to look at. Also, T&J comics are on hiatus. I can't seem to find the others. They will return, though.
1. Chuck Jones—Chuck Jones’ official website has changed many times since its beginning. This site is not just the official Chuck Jones Website. It is the official website for the Chuck Jones Gallery and Chuck Jones Center for Creativity. It includes an online shop to shop for Chuck Jones related stuff. It also provides a timeline and fact sheets of Chucks life and career. I liked the 2015 look the best. The home page had character profiles, facts, and videos.

2. Bob Clampett--
Bob Clampett's official website did last long. It only lasted about 2 years. It includes great articles, stories and a timeline.

3. Cartoon Network
OK, I know, but hear me out. The Cartoon Network Website used to have something called DOC (Department of Cartoons). It included a rare tour of Hanna-Barbera (which doesn't work on the archived site), backgrounds, model sheets, and tons of other stuff while you're at it check out the Boomerang timeline!

Love seeing the evolution of Chuck Jones dot com. Terrific.
