Design Choices

ElementWhy
Comic SansPeak Geocities energy. Unironically signals “we don’t take ourselves too seriously”
Starfield backgroundPure CSS radial gradients — no image files, no requests
No JavaScriptFaster than any React SPA. Works in Netscape Navigator 4.0
Visitor counterHardcoded at 000042. Not dynamic. That’s the joke
Blinking cursorCSS animation. The one piece of “motion” on the page
”No trackers” badgeEarnest. The site literally cannot track you

Future Ideas

  • Add a real visitor counter (server-side or GoatCounter)
  • Add a guestbook page (actual CGI or simulated)
  • “Webring” links to other retro sites
  • Animated GIF badges (“PARQUET NOW!”, “AI POWERED”)
  • Replace PGP placeholder with actual key
  • Set up solutions@igorai.info email forwarding
