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/
Great links! Thank you for sharing! That Neil Gaiman article is both insightful and hilarious.
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. :)
Omg... thank you for pointing this out to me! I found it a while ago and had it saved in a folder. But damn... does this mean I can use more of these if I just link back to your gallery? Because these are EXACTLY what I was looking for!! <3
Of course you can use the icons on your page! That is what they are for... just as long and you link them back! and if you don't... >:( Well that would be Serious Business and we would be forced to have you arrested by the internet police and put into internet jail!!1!
Countless albums of lyrics
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.
A detailed gamefaqs guide for mario sunshine.
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
Individual frames of animated gifs so I could make flipbooks of Goku.
Day of the Barney fanfic.
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.
