- sprobertson 14y agoGeocities in HD, at least
- jastanton 14y agoIm not sure if high def is the right adjective: https://www.scrollkit.com/s/plIhCWv https://www.scrollkit.com/s/plIhCWv
- ktsmith 14y agoWow, that's an even better example.
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoReminds me of Yvette's Bridal Formal, when it still existed, except about 90% less cluttered.

- pawelwentpawel 14y agoThis psychodelic background "rainbow" + music from the video gives me a trip. Yet still, might be quite attractive for hipster sapiens.
- sharkweek 14y agoone of those full circle type things -- it's far enough behind us that it's now funny and hip
- creamyhorror 14y agoI like it. Lots of personality, you know they're there to make it fun. We could do with a return of the GeoCities self-made-page aesthetic (with improved aesthetic sense, of course) on a web where everything on the big sites is neatly templated and identical in layout. Amidst all the consistency, I've been missing the touches that used to make personal sites unique. All people do on their blogs now is throw on funny pictures; the format/layout is never broken, or it simply can't be. This is a good reminder to us to break the mould whenever we feel it's appropriate (or whenever we feel like it).
- ktsmith 14y agoI feel the opposite and don't particularly care for it. The page is basically content free has some content that is difficult to read and contains seizure inducing animation.
- ShawnBird 14y agoExactly, anyone who thinks this is an improvement is not thinking it through.
- wpietri 14y agoThat's an excellent point. But I hope people who build mold-breaking tools realize that most people don't have sufficiently strong aesthetic sense to create beautiful things out of the gate. For whatever reason, we keep having to relearn the "angry fruit salad" lesson over and over: http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/A/angry-fruit-salad.html http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/A/angry-fruit-salad.html
- Homunculiheaded 14y agoI think in 5 years we'll look back and see this as web design's "VonDutch hat" moment.
