Fun and a brilliant little marketing campaign too.

Thanks :)! I had a blast building this!

Wow, takes me back to the days of using Adobe Pagemill and laying things out pixel perfect with tables.

drikerf2• 4 years ago

Tables! Those were the days :)

I also had good times with FrontPage.

Graduating (or as I thought) from Sausage Software’s HotDog to Microsoft Frontpage was quite a step.. tables everywhere!

Your background is too clean. No respectable 90's webpage would be caught without the repeating patterned background.

What? No background?

Love it. I at first wrote that it should be fixed width at 800 or 640; though I guess that depends on whether you want to be accurate to the actual code of the 90's or the way it looked to users.

It is actually better in some ways. Not least I can read the whole thing without scrolling.

I love that I can read the whole page without scrolling.

Nice idea for a marketing campaign. Make a 90 version of your site and post it everywhere. The curious people will click.
