I've just realized. . . I've been here at Theroms for 5 years now!
I was just laughing about how I lied when I originally registered and clicked the "I am older than or exactly 13 years old" button when I was really almost 13.



Now, I'm almost 18. Oh gods, it's been a while. . .

Wouldn't it be funny if we hadn't done all those board switchings and such and could see our first posts.

Haha, I guess I'm getting that because it's through that archive site. . .

That made me laugh quite a bit.

it's probably cause all the scripts chris had for the site back then only work on IE, whooo dhtml haha.

Sorry guys haha that was before the days of Firefox when IE was actually the only browser on the block.

Here's some that are somewhat loading:

The Green Layout
- It had a picture of a random video game character in the top left hand corner such as Link or Toad.

Professional Layout
- The only design done by a 'professional' designer. I think it was my favorite layout of the website ever actually. To bad the images don't load on it anymore.

PHP Nuke
- Pretty plain layout, don't really remember much about this one, can't think of what the logo looked like either. You can see our Sep. 11 news post on this one.

My Layout
- The 'first' layout I designed completely myself that is actually decent. Yeah it's pretty simple but I was proud of it.

Zelda-Sticky-Note Layout
- Probably the longest lasting layout on the website. Pretty much stayed on the entire time we weren't really doing anything with the site anymore.

Current Layout
- Why isn't this in the archive yet!!


** This probably isn't even a quarter of the layouts we have had. I can think of a few that aren't there. The black 'ugly' layout that we started with. I bet only Raf would remember this one. Our Polish Pride layout with the eagle as a logo. I also vaguely remember a white-ish one with a bunch of animated gifs of video game characters on it.

Yeah, professional was definitely my favorite too.

that's pretty sweeeeet.

Where's the red layout that I loved and made my retinas burn out?

Good times

Better yet. WTF happened to all the members from back in 2001.

Well there's Moschops, he's... probably dead.
Ferris. . . same.
Andy shows up every once in a while. . .
TMBG just stopped coming. . .
I think everyone else just plain died.

Ahh yes forgot about the retina burner, too bad it never made it into the archive. With I had made screenshots or saved all the layouts I had over the years.

ditto...for CC

I remember the red layout.
I was one of the bastards that only came to download roms.


Or how about the days when EmuHQ was actually useful?

Meemoriees!


Hee this is what I got when I loaded the forum with IE

Haha, yeah I switched to IE and tried and still got that too.

Holy crap!!! 5 years! thats insane! It actually scares me when I think how much changes in 5 years, not least the fact that i'm almost 22 and I was like 17 when I first starting coming here!!! WOW, haha don't make a post like that when it's 10 years. cos then i'll be nearly 30 haha!

I'll be a good 23, haha.

yikes i was acutly about 13 when i signed up here as well (18 now), looks like We all have been around here for a long time. Hell I came here from OML anyone remember that gem? lol.

Edited by Lib3rty0x on Oct. 27, 2005 @ 7:18 AM

Wasn't that place supposed to suck?

OML was the reason that I made this website. It was my favorite site for the longest time and I was a member on their forums for the longest time. After a whle they got really gay so I left and made my own site. I don't even remember why I got mad at them and left anymore.

omg lol.... nostalgia trip! I can't remember the first layout but after that lol.... didn't join the forums proper till Zelda one though

ditto. too much drama there

how about AngelFishy... what ever happened to her....... I didn't care for her much.

i sense some rivalry
