- birdyrooster 3y agoIronic that someone can write a blog and spend all this time reproducing a small portion of something that thousands of us have seen. Islands of information.
- deathanatos 3y agoOr there's just so much chaff. I've done similar searches, and the number of results akin to the 400x400 one she got just seem to blanket the results. Bad resizes, bad crops, JPEG'ing, people photographing a screen, etc. … when you're looking for the OG. And this particular animation is practically a treasure, now, as it was burned into the collective consciousness of the time. That is should be hard to find says a lot about search engines, the Internet, or both…

- deathanatos 3y agoWell, seems like that site got the HN hug o' death. The blog post survives, though…

- deathanatos 3y agoWell, now that that site is back up: is it all of them? The one from the OP doesn't seem to be there. (It doesn't seem like the OP's is Netscape 4, either; according to [1], it seems like the one OP was after is from Netscape 1. Or as the author says, " the original Netscape Navigator", emphasis mine.) (And [1]'s image has been altered: there's a white border, the last few frames appear to be missing, the palette isn't quite right — vs. the palette in the OPs is just spot-on and screams the era. Seems to only drive home some of the points in the OP.) [1]: https://www.versionmuseum.com/history-of/netscape-browser https://www.versionmuseum.com/history-of/netscape-browser
