Fabulous Art People lists 95 artists from around the world, in 234 different countries. The aim of the site is to help artists and arts-related companies find like-minded souls near them, and hopefully kick-start some local meet-ups and business opportunities.
The site was built by Mandrill Media.

Country data and location lookups come from GeoNames, while the maps themselves are powered by the Google Maps API. Country flags and icons are by Mark James; US state flags come from Wikipedia.
The site uses django-tagging by Jonathan Buchanan for the skills feature, and sorl-thumbnail by Mikko Hellsing and Chris Beaven for thumbnailing. OpenID support (used by 0 people) depends on python-openid (version 1.2.0) and django-openid.
Deployment is mod_wsgi running on Apache 2 behind an nginx proxy.
