Man...... remember those days..... i got involved around the end of it all... but man that had to be one of my biggest inspirations, so much young raw talent... where's that at now days....

BUMP.
I can't possibly be the only one who's been around that long on here... or maybe i'm the only one who thought of it as a great influence on the web... hell it gave birth to some of the best of us....

i was around, and i remember swanky. i wasn't very interested in web design at the time, though. more into fine art and music.
but i certainly remember when it fell apart.

i was a member of the swank army. my first web site was hosted there. i hadn't thought about that place in years!

an actual "community"everything was new and fresh. those were the days...
- vena0
by "community" i'll take it you meant "not enough people interested to fuck it up"

Shows you how young I am as a designer (only 3 years) I've never even heard of Swank Army before now
- Duane0
do you guys remember the design posse?
- cocoboy1der0
none of these young bucks remember the design posse.
and this is why i talk a lot of junk to these community college web design majors who try to get smart with me.
they all need a healthy dose of pushups.
- vena0
bitch, i *know* you're not talking about me.
- cocoboy1der0
nah, i know much better than that vena beans.

i'm hatin'
but most of these kids aint get on the interweb until college or AOL.
some of these folks never had to see a 9600 baud modem :<
- vena0
maybe i'm getting old, but things moved so much faster back then... regardless of baud rate...

those were the days- nostalgic. reminds me of Invertebrae and Virus1 - mediaboy had the freshest browser tricks.

a very inspiring point for me was DHKY vs. Famewhore. I still remember being mindblown when they used the title sound from golden harvest kungfu flicks.

Ahh yeah the good ol days, i remember the design posse, and for the ice/ACiD stuff, I got burnt out on those groups.... their still going which is weird.... digital painting just bores me most of the time...
