@ajsadauskas @asklemmy (Trying to remember my own GeoCities site from back then), Many had a “best viewed on Netscape” icon

I think mine had mostly my own song lyrics, with a different background for each page, with a menu page and forward/back links on each lyrics page.

Were frames 90s? Friend of mine used frames to make his site look like a console from Star Trek TNG

I miss midis.

It has a cat gif I don't think it needs anything else I'm sorry

Add a visitor counter like this one - https://retrowptheme.com/retro-visitor-counter/

for more vintage gif's check this website - https://gifcities.org

You need to offer something banal for download with a spinning stiffy disk gif.

@ajsadauskas @asklemmy neko cat website pet thing

The Netscape logo at the bottom killed me

Nice project. I like the nostalgia. 👍

After some searching I learned that Tripod and Angelfire still exist today as web hosting providers. Your page could have a few more Under construction signs here and there.

@ajsadauskas @neil @asklemmy Looks amazing!

My only question is about whether drop shadows on text was prominent. I’m having trouble remembering how that effect would have been accomplished in the 90s, since I don’t think CSS got it until later. Would it have been something on the <font> tag only supported in Internet Explorer?

@ajsadauskas @asklemmy

That's brilliant! Those were simpler times, that's for sure :)

You need to add some text with the RuneScape glow1:wave: text effect

Add a guest book a page vist counter and a web ring

I recommend a "gallery" of photos of whatever topic you want, but probably something obscure like your favorite McDonalds playgrounds or of you holding up fish you've caught. The resolution on the pictures can't more than 640x480 tho.

A little music player with a playlist that plays that eras music. Links to retro sites that no longer exist that actually work, that way we can bring the internet of the past back.

@ajsadauskas @asklemmy Width doesn't fit properly on mobile, well done 🤣👍

The cat art style doesnt look 90ish to me

Check out maya.land. especially webmentions.

I don't know how to tag a user on lemmy. Is maya still around?

I'm also a big fan of confusing landing pages.
