before you could convert movie clips to a webm and put some lazy text over it as a sub, chinese otakus would hand draw pixel movies frame by frame and turn them into .gifs.

Because that was when the gif, which came out at that time, was popular. If you even owned a DSi at the time you would 'member Flipnote Hatena and how many people had eevees, and other pokemons as characters.

So was the overuse of the same certain avatars back in the day due to the lack of circulation of icons back then compared to now? For those too lazy to make their own at least

>>389110458

I can't find the full one. Someone for nostalgia's sake post the full version of this

>>389114158
Original content just wasn't churned out like it is now. The majority of humans weren't on the internet yet and if they were it was live journal or Myspace. You'd wait eons for your favorite animators or comedy group like pure pwnage to release a video, most of the time with no signal on when it was coming out. It was barbaric in nature but it was a magical time when I think back on it.

That orange fox was everywhere.

Internet was so much better in the late 90's early 2000's, people were far more pleasant in general because they were amazed by the internet and just happy being on it.

If you browsed any forum you would see tons of helpful, thoughtful and enjoyable posts. Trolls were a minority where as now they are the majority,

For a lot of people it was a matter of not knowing basic cropping skills. For most of us though it was a lack of webspace. if the forum didn't allow you to upload your own avatar and needed a link, you were basically gonna be leeching from another site.

Only forums I frequented were a local forum where you had to choose their own premade pixel art avatars (I chose the Rocky Horror one and everyone treated me like I was openly gay, and most regulars are super conservative), while the other one was a Kingdom of Loathing forum (old free turn based MMO). There I paid in game currency to have drawings of my character that I cropped and used as avatars. I really wish I could find those, I know I had some photobucket account with a couple of them uploaded.
