Ah, neocities, had a site there for some time, it's very good. It truely revives the feeling of "surfing on the web" that geocities gave with thoses 88x31 buttons, thoses flashy gifs and thoses bright colors everywhere.
It was at around 600000 websites not long ago and got beyond 1 million recently, seems like it's blowing up in popularity (I hope for the better).
when I was a kid I cared deeply about making a super awesome, aesthetically-pleasing site but I had no life experience or knowledge to actually put on it. Now later in life, I have some meaningful things to put on there but I couldn't give a hoot about aesthetics. I don't even see the point of using CSS.
