The thing that stands out for me with the music videos was the "splash screens" that would be inserted for the first few seconds. I screencapped 20 of them and made an album, linked here since some of them are Vaporwave. Maybe it's a similar thing to cracktros?

It reminds me how a lot of scanned images in these days had scanner names on them, porn or not. I downloaded a lot of anime artbooks around this time and they all had like "Goku Scans" or something like that on them. My Myspace experience is going to a girl i was interested ins page and having terrible music suddenly blaring out at me.

je1 healthcare posted:Which is strange, because the IRL Largo was purged from the creative process about 18 years ago and the comic's been unfunny ever since. I don't blame him for getting out. He saw what a lovely as gently caress work ethic Fred had and realized they'd never agree on how best to do the comic. (The Megatokyo visual novel still isn't out and there's still no updates, lol.)

The thing I remember most about my webcomic days, and Megatokyo in particular was "Sorry there's no comic today guys  " posts. This is from the idiot who spent her early teen money on an "Evil L33t" tshirt and MT Volume 1. I also bought the first volume of the Real Life comic back in 2004 or so but the creator ended up being trans and I feel totally justified in retroactively supporting her so there's that. I know Questionable Content gets mocked a lot on SA but Jeph Jacques did some solid soul searching and ended up doing a lot of trans friendly stuff later on. Plus he's a real cool dude and his dog is great.Man early 2000s webcomics were totally my jam.

I figured he'd land on one publisher and stick with them, but...yeah...  I have several volumes of Penny Arcade as well, but those I don't regret nearly as much because, y'know, the PA guys at least can stick to a drat schedule and not make excuses for themselves.The story arc where Real Life's creator came out as trans had me teary eyed at the end, I'm not afraid to admit. That was a shockingly beautiful moment that I never would have expected from her. I miss early to late 2000s webcomics. Most of them were poo poo, but they were my poo poo, dammit. FilthyImp posted:I thought that Piro basically said "Sell your share to me or I'll just stop drawing" or something lovely like that. Did he? It always seemed to me from the way they explained it that they couldn't agree on the direction of the comic so Largo sold his half and broke ties. Granted, knowing everything we know about Piro now, I wouldn't doubt it happened like you said.

His current arcs are more about robo-human loving which I find kind of funny in this weird "how can I be more progressive in this world" kind of way. Vandar posted:Did he? It always seemed to me from the way they explained it that they couldn't agree on the direction of the comic so Largo sold his half and broke ties. Which, to me, sounds like Caston was making randoventures in Nihon while Gallagher was getting into deep personal lore about the sentient PS2 fuckdoll (OC Not Chobits) and just not incorporating any of the scripts. He also mentioned Caston asked for roving zombie hordes and he just never addressed it because ew gross zombie violence. Anyway, it got to the point where Largo was less and less involved and Gallagher basically said "If I can't do the story the way I want I'll just stop drawing and move on to one of my many half-sketched ideas like Warmth" so Largo agreed on a settlement and left.

Speaking of 2000's webcomics, did you know there is a sequel to Dominic Deegan going?? There's even a BSS thread! https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3893205&pagenumber=1&perpage=40 It's really bad! Somehow in over 10 years since the original comic, Mookie has not managed to improve his art one iota. It's almost impressive Happy Landfill has a new favorite as of 09:32 on Nov 29, 2020 |

If by "keeping up" you mean, "skirting his own rules by having characters write things down to communicate the most important information so he doesn't have to convey it visually" then yes. Also the weird, out-of-place nudity

That was a shockingly beautiful moment that I never would have expected from her. That storyline was really good and its kept me reading the comic since, though its funny that outside of the generally very good trans joke ones, the comic is otherwise exactly the same it was a decade and a half ago. I know I'm not the only person reading it again and baffled by this and her occasional references to the 'deep lore' of the comic that is complete monkeycheese nonsense that absolutely doesn't fit with the other stuff.

The contemporary version of this would have a bunch of hot and hunky millionares. I was reminded today that Len's last gasp of attention was for a cover of Kids in America for the Digimon movie. I love how the second the movie ends the band is out of there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wn7zPdizrqk lol Digimon.

That was the era where people would go "did you see this hilarious youtube video?" and 90% of them were My New Haircut. Yes, i've already seen it, yes the asian one too, also don't you know Asian dudes can be cool and gently caress now? If you have a nerdy ethnic stereotype, they should be Indian and have a name that ends in a J.

I've noticed a trend where lots of people still recall 00's internet videos and animations, such as Charlie the Unicorn, even though there have been an inconceivable amount of viral videos and memes since then. I loving hated Charlie the Unicorn back then and it's pure cringe if someone still brings it up now and yet I've had this happen on several occasions over the last few years.

That's the candy mountain one, right? The only laughs i had from it was from how crazy it drove my kid brother. Every few years or so i'll whisper  :"We're going to candy mountain, Charlie!" in his ear.
