It has been an unreal honor to be part of this project, you definitely will want to check it out & it is ever-evolving in real time ♥
thanks to the hard work of the volunteer transcribers, we've finished transcribing 6,000 (!) blinkies archived from old geocities websites!
we've used the transcripts to build Geoblinkies, a blinkie search engine that searches the full text & image descriptions of all 6,000 blinkies!! you can also visit the Geocities page that each blinkie was found on, and explore the old web from there :D
thank you so much to the transcribers and to GifCities & the Internet Archive (the source of all of these blinkies) for making projects like this possible!!!

Sorry not sorry, friends
Name: Lexi
~ Btw: tons of actual about me info in my tabs to the left if viewing in browser ~
Reason for this page:
Once upon a time, I had another blog that I loved dearly named "Shower me in Stardust" that I spent years on, during said years I added sub-blogs & one day in June 2022 while sleepy & trying to delete a no longer used sub-blog I somehow opted to delete the entire account - yeah, I don't know either...
The Positives:
Moving on from that was difficult as I did mourn losing years of curation, but it also happened to be the fire I needed lit under my ass to make a blog I actually put effort into, I have had so much fun playing with Html & learning a ton in the meantime & will continue to do so ♥
Extras:
In the past, I used to worry about the things posted to my page and if they would fit a particular "look", "aesthetic", etc. but in hindsight & years later I see how silly that was so this is a little reminder to be true to ourselves first & foremost.
~ I will continue to update this as time goes on ~
