Anybody remember Geocities?
Geocities was a Yahoo! owned service where users could publish their own websites for free. It was a very simple web hosting service that was popular during the late 90’s to early 2000’s. Eventually, the times changed and gone were the days of people creating cheesy personal websites with lots of colorful animated GIFs as backgrounds… The era of social media was upon us. This led to Yahoo! closing down Geocities.
As the head admin and designer for KAC, KotseAudioClub, I have made a lot of artwork for the group over the years. I was browsing through my Photobucket account and found a couple of them. I may have purged all the older ones to free up space on my Photobucket account.
Were you born in the 70’s or 80’s? If so, you probably have seen a couple of the ads I will feature in this blog entry.
I was a little bored and started searching for “vintage toy ads” and came upon those old ads that were notoriously placed in comic books during those periods. I really found them interesting as a kid and this discovery that some people had actually scanned and uploaded them on the internet sparked my interest to find more.
Found the game, Golden Axe, online. You can play it right on your browser.
I am a big Indiana Jones fan and collector… Not many of those here in the Philippines. Most people here are more into Star Wars. I wanted a collection that was sort of rare (rare here in the Philippines) and not as common. I didn’t want a collection that a lot of people were into. I wanted a collection that was both about something I loved and something that was rare. And Indiana Jones fit t he bill perfectly.
I just updated my price list for Fenris Wands.
I added two wands to be part of the regular roster of wands that I offer.
