Under construction!
I miss midis.
You need to offer something banal for download with a spinning stiffy disk gif.
@ajsadauskas @asklemmy (Trying to remember my own GeoCities site from back then), Many had a βbest viewed on Netscapeβ 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
Yep frames were html 4.0 :o)
The problem is the MIDI file doesn't automatically play.
@ajsadauskas@aus.social @asklemmy@lemmy.ml uh, nice vibes!
@ajsadauskas@aus.social @asklemmy@lemmy.ml I think I actually have a few of my 90s-era sites archived. One of them should have an auto play midi for the background music. I'll see if I can dig it up!

You need to add some text with the RuneScape glow1:wave: text effect
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.
EDIT: an RSS feed for any website, old or new
Nice project. I like the nostalgia. π
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.
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.
