I remember one of these troll websites was one that displayed a picture of some James Bond like character. The entire window would then become "wavy", moving around the screen while it animates the waves, with of course the close buttons being totally unresponsive.
I wonder now how did those things work. I guess back in time browsers allowed you to do whatever you wanted with zero consequences?
- gruez 5y agoBy "wavy", do you mean something like this? https://i.stack.imgur.com/4Jh7t.jpg https://i.stack.imgur.com/4Jh7t.jpg AFAIK it's to do with how compositing was done in windows. Every app drew to the same surface. If it couldn't redraw because it was frozen or whatever, then you'd see the remnants of what was previously drawn, hence the pattern.
