It was college, not high school, but I definitely printed out some long fanfics for later reading at home (I didn't have internet at home at the time).

Although now that I think about it, I *did* get a smack in the back of the head from my Spanish teacher for printing out a pic of I think it was a Mighty Ducks The Animated Series character art lmao.

Omg!! I was printing out so much, lmao. It was mostly anime/videogame fan art (a looot of kingdom hearts) and fan fiction. I had a special folder that I’d hoard all of my husbando pics in. This started a trend within my friend circle and we’d whip out our secret folder/binders and share what we had found online that week...some of us still have the folders, it’s really funny! :p

Lots of dinosaur and animal related stuff at college, though no one really seemed to care. I used to recycle printouts that other students had discarded so save paper.

Thanks! About creativity itself? To be honest, I am not sure. A brief Internet search for "psychology of Creativity" turned up this: https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-creativity-p2-3986725

For me personally, "creativity" has two meanings: 1. getting a different perspective on the seemingly familar and 2. having a drive to make things. The first is achieved through exploration and the second is achieved by dedication. Both meanings are complementary and have constructiveness as their aim.

I hope that helps in some way! I am happy to dialogue about it more if you are interested.

Neil Gaiman wrote a good piece about "Where do you get your ideas from?" : https://www.neilgaiman.com/Cool_Stuff/Essays/Essays_By_Neil/Where_do_you_get_your_ideas%3F

Also Austin Kleon's blog goes over creativity/art/ideas etc all the time, he cites a lot of other famous creatives and I usually enjoy reading any of his entries: https://austinkleon.com/

No back then we relied on guestbooks and site fourms. Most sites had a guestbook or a fourm some had both.As far as NeoCities goes, everyone I would think loves to see people post comments on thier profile here or in their guestbooks, I know I do.

Haha! It's great isn't it? I don't think Geocities had any feature like it, although it has been a long time and I could be wrong.

I love this feature, too! I think it's a great addition and a great way to interact. :)

You can also use HTTrack, a piece of software for making a local copy of a website. It is available for multiple operating systems and is fairly easy to use.
love this article. i have pangs of regret for not having a lot of my early web sites archived. the web archive was just getting started back around then but i've lost so much with deleted files, dying harddrives. the earliest of my works i can find is from 99 and all the images are missing. oh well, more on top of it these days :)
on surftheweb.html there's great opportunity to start exploring hand currated link directories that have been started in the last few years. similar to what yahoo! first started as, check out kickscondor.com who i feel is leading the charge with his link directory https://href.cool. love your newoldweb series :)
neocities used to let you download your entire website in a zip file so you could back it up that way. It was a super useful feature, but I guess they had to get rid of it. I don't know why.
you can still download your site in a zip file, from the dashboard at the bottom left corner
That's odd, because the link is no longer there for me. Perhaps it has something to do with the size of the website? (mine is just under 20mb). Honestly, this is a mystery to me.
I think you are right. I noticed my link disappeared too after I hit a certain size.
I also do not have the link on my dashboard anymore. I definitely used to. But supporters can download their archive via Cyberduck on Windows, so I guess I'll manually archive every so often.
