yeah i see this soooooo much and it's like. i thought the idea was we WANT to preserve old web style site building etc. how are newcomers supposed to learn if they are not allowed to copy

and i get that like okay: coding is hard! it takes hours to get something the way you want it to look! and it does feel unfair that those who come after can just copy it with less struggle. but that's life lol

Of course I'd be a bit tilted if someone stole my work - but I wouldn't make an entire page going "okay, rattle em boys" - I'd try to be nice and push them in the right direction

Respectfully, there is a pretty significant difference between looking at someone's site/copying some lines of code to learn and ripping someone's entire website wholesale and slapping your name on it, especially since the latter seems to be much more common. I don't believe in behaving violently towards people who do this, but it's not like it's *nothing* to be annoyed about.

@lazer-bunny yeah to be fair i would be genuinely annoyed if someone ripped off my site without chaging the graphics/colour scheme etc and i wouldn't be writing callouts about it BUT i do think it's weird when people do that. why would you want an exact perfect copy

I literally spent an entire night just looking through old pop'n site pages and downloading so many little web banners and other stuff

I love love love peoples sites that have old sanrio ads and stuff on their page and I've wanted to do something like that but with my interests aaaaa

i say do it

i have sooo many other shrine ideas too hehe. I'm currently finally working on my avomatcha shrine and i really wanna make a ralts evo line shrine

I actually went out to an arcade today to play some Pop'n, though I do admit that the inspiration to play it came from elsewhere. It's really fun!

Idk if you saw it/got a notification but I phrased that comment I made differently the first time before then going though your site and feeling like an ass about it >_<. I don't really engage with this place as much as I maybe should. But your site is also making me wanna spruce up mine a bit.

Oh cool!!! And I don't mind the comments, feedback is feedback c:
