I was a little disappointed not to see an "under construction" banner on any of the websites I surfed.

The Internet Archive offers a tool whose entire purpose is to let you search gifs scraped from GeoCities. Here's a search for "under construction", eat your heart out: https://gifcities.org/?q=under+construction
Jason @ textfiles also did a nice compilation: http://textfiles.com/underconstruction/

There's a delightful irony in the fact that such a page would absolutely have murdered a browser from its era. Nevertheless, these remind me of a different internet and scratch one heck of a nostalgia zone.

That was a real hoot to scroll through. Thank you!
