Jesus fucking Christ, don't you know better than to link to this shit? All we can see are those weirdly distorted logos. Find a better image to use, or at least store it on flickr or something before posting it to a thread.

Oh, I thought this was a serious question. I think I like the tripod one best, but can someone remind me of the logos?

Blimey! The dogs are cute, but the Tripod "don't steal our stuff" logo was pretty cool. Definitely better than the Geocities one.

Geocities, because there's actually a neat and simple way of always linking it so that anyone can always see it.

Speaking of fortune city; I am trying to create a webpage that doesn't have too many pop up windows, I used to have a webpage with FC about 5 years ago, but I have been off the grid for a long time and I don't know if there is anything better out there now. (A bit off topic, but I thought I would ask)

Geocities to close down later this year, no free alternative from Yahoo.

I'm going to miss my long-neglected first Web site: http://geocities.com/acewhiskey/

Especially this page.
