=Website and Forum=
Soon after the mainstream adoption of the internet, Dimensions created a website, posting columns and weight gain stories featured in the magazine as well as running competitions for aspiring models for their publication. Elsewhere, a woman known as BBW-QT created a website featuring personal ads for BBWs and FAs, which included a discussion board and a chatroom. The website's soon bandwidth charges soon became too much for BBW-QT to continue supporting, as the popularity of the forum and chatroom increased dramatically, so a deal was made for Dimensions to absorb the discussion board and chatroom, while BBW-QT closed her site. The new Dimensions community grew and by the late 1990's, Dimensions had become widely regarded as THE online site for fat admiration.
In 1997, the magazine became one of the first regular online magazines. The website began advertising and selling [[Dimensions Wide Angle Video Productions]] - soft-core pictorials that featured BBWs. Of these, most heavily promoted was '''The [[feeder|Feeding]] Fantasies of [[Betsy]]''', which introduced feederism to many. They also started [[DimensionsGirls]] modeling network, which eventually became part of [[BigCuties]].
