  1. http://firstglance.jmol.org
    (NOT https!). Easy to remember but ccasionally down beyond our control. This URL redirects to whichever server below is performing best at a given time. Thanks to Jmol.org, especially Miguel Howard.

  2. https://proteopedia.org/wiki/fgij/
    runs on the Amazon Web Service, but is sometimes out due to server overload (denial of service attacks?). Thanks to Jaime Prilusky, Joel Sussman, and the Dana and Yossie Hollander Structural Proteomics Center.

  3. https://bioinformatics.org/firstglance/fgij/.
    In July, 2025, this server is slightly slower on first use, but FirstGlance works quickly after it is in the browser cache (new sessions on the same day). Thanks to Jeff Bizzaro, founder and admin for bioinformatics.org.
