Wow! A whole year; time does go by fast when you are having fun! And it's really been a great year; our forum has grown from strength to strength and we are happy to say that we have a nice number of permanent members.  All of you have contributed to the development of the forum and in even the site itself.  I thank our current members --you know who you are ;-) --for their on-going support. It's been great getting to know you all and I look forward to even more fun during the year that follows.  For those of you who are not members YET, please pop around and join us on the boards.  We are an international community of like-minded people that are supportive of Kevin and into celebrating his talent. Plus you will be the first to know all the latest news, to get the first offers on merchandise and join in all the fun. A huge thanks to Kat for all her hard work on the site and Kevin especially because, without him, we would not exist... 

I hope to see you all at the next Halloween chat 2 Nov GMT 21:00; email invitations and reminders are coming soon to those registered.

go with love, Leanne, Fan Forum/Multimedia Admin for

Kevin McKidd Online

We're officially 1 year old and what a year it's been! Kevin McKidd Online went from one mini-site featuring news and articles on Kevin to a full-blown fan site, thanks to our viewers and Kevin's interaction!  When we started out, it was to offer others background information on Kevin—the sort of insightful biography and film articles that took us wading through hundreds of different sources to pull together. We tried to weed out all the critiques and get to the nitty-gritty, the real articles about Kevin, ones with substance and credibility. We did the dirty work so that others in future wouldn't have to. We went from 4 pages of information and a few photos to needing full section menus and a gallery hub to contain it all. We didn't start with a fan forum, but we received so many positive emails that we built it and you came; a chat room soon followed. We branched out from this site to three or four different mediums, taking on Myspace, Facebook, Youtube, and Zoopy videos as well.  Thank you to the volunteers who participate or lend their expertise at all these sites; you're amazing. Without using ads and special gimmicks to increase traffic to the site, KMK Online quickly ranked third on Kevin-related Google searches and is linked on IMDB. Wow. We're proud of that since we aren't after making money or distracting you with a lot of flash—we're simply here to promote Kevin and give his fans another place to call home. Kevin's popularity keeps advancing and we're so excited to help spread the word about how cool he is. And he definitely is. But you already know that; it's what keeps you coming back to visit. He's the kind of guy that inspires you to try acting or to petition big networks to keep him on television or even to ask us for a Kevin-centric tour of Scotland in the future. If there's anything you, the fans, have taught me personally this year, it's that anything is possible….  Thank you for that and for sticking around. We're going to keep getting better, keep taking fan suggestions, keep growing….  If we can do so much in the 1st year, imagine the possibilities in our 2nd.  

Sincerely,  Kat,  Admin of Kevin McKidd Online

2:  A film called Faith is still in early planning stages & not set for production until possibly next year, but will star Kevin as "the lead in a tale about a relationship between a father and daughter." (Scotsman.com)

3: We've updated the gallery and multimedia page with the latest Kevin gems, including the newest promotional shots of Kevin's return to "Grey's Anatomy," some on-set photos from filming around L.A., his recent venture at the American Film Institute's Mad Men Golf Classic, and more of his voice-over work for Vice City and Highland Empire.  Gallery photos ARE capable of being saved; you must double click on the photo of interest in order to save to your computer.  We've also moved to a flash slideshow format for the home page.

Finally, we will have a special FrightNight chat on Sunday, November 2nd at GMT 21:00 (roughly 4pm CST U.S.). We recommend registering through the message boards early to circumvent any problems entering the chatroom. 

For more help or information, visit the Fan Forum boards: http://kevinmckidd.proboards76.com/. Once registered and logged into the boards, you will find the chat button along the top, next to the logout option.  We've also just added a direct link to the chatroom under the Fan Forum section on this site; thanks to fans for their suggestions in implementing this new feature! See you on the flipside!

Thanks to Kevin for another update while on location in Bucharest! We got the info from Kevin about this new project before IMDB had any details on the cast and future film!  

While we await Kevin on the big screen, be sure to check out the site, message board and gallery updates. We're still busy making adjustments behind the scenes--still to come are an FAQ page and the News Archives overhaul, which is already in process.

One great new feature now in effect is the Messages~to~Kevin area for those that want to send greetings out to the man himself. This way the "Contact Us" tab can be used more for those needing site assistance or admin-related help while Kevin now has his own easy-access page for perusing comments.  Otherwise, his agency address for fan letters (listed under the Fan Forum section) is still the best "private" option.  As he is presently filming, however, please take into account obvious delays in the mailing process.   

Also thanks to Leanne, our message board Administrator, for all the hard work she has put into the Youtube and Zoopy video snippets. If you have trouble finding a previous Kevin-related film, check these sites for potential extended scenes.
