God, I've been complaining about this for so many years now. The hardest part about duplicating the Web 1.0 aesthetic (well) has been finding the primary locations where the tile/image/iconsets originated and mirroring them for modern consumption — I'm still working on that.

I didn't think it was possible to fall in love with a website, but here I am. Nostalgia!

I've been brainstorming ways to overhaul my personal site for a while now, and this is definitely the way I'll be going. Personal web pages used to mean something.

Upvoting and replying to your comment to say hell yeah!
Hey thanks! It's mostly just html/js/css/, but there is also some php (for the guestbook) that I've actually been meaning to port over to Go recently. I normally wouldn't use source control for a project as trivial as this, but I got tired of TRAMPing individual files over the wire ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
