I noticed that the Flashdance video game didn't have a working download link. Flashdance was such an 80s classic, that it was a good idea to have a video game adaptation.

A new GIF has just been added to the welcome page, a 90s style computer with an animated welcome message!

Well, it occurred to me that a GIF message with some 90s style computer aesthetics might be a good idea. When I was a kid in the 90s, I spent more time playing video games on the computer, than I did watching Step By Step.

I love how a 90s style computer is featured in the preview image here! I used some nostalgic icons from 90s Windows products in some images I made too.

howdy. I see that you created this Neocity one day before Madonna's birthday. I'm a big fan of Madge.

welcome to the site. I see that your Neocity was created on the birthday of Leonard Cohen's son Adam. I'm a fan of lots of celebrities.

lots of MIDI tracks were used as background music for webpages more than 20 years ago.
Felt a bit morbid 'liking' that comment. Still, RIP, Dave Smith.
Here's the thing, as a fan of the MP3 file format, I really have this tendency to worship Suzanne Vega, since she was "mother of the MP3", but this time I wanted to give some honor to the father of MIDI for a change, and was shocked to find out that he died this year. I don't really hear people mention Dave Smith much, so I decided to give condolences to him.
Also, classic Geocities-style sites used MIDI music as their background music, and I was planning on making some new webpages that use some MIDI-style music as their background music.
