Flash once brought movement and surprise to the web. Its free expressiveness has fascinated many creators, and in Japan, innovative websites such as Yugo Nakamura's MONO*crafts (1999) have been born one after another. However, it also has weaknesses such as slow operation, security risks, and difficulty in adapting to the smartphone era, and official support for it ended in 2020. These works have already become "lost technology".
This archive is an attempt to preserve for posterity a glimpse of Japanese web design born in the Flash era. It features screenshots from that time and links to the Internet Archive, mainly of sites introduced in the Web Design Gallery that has been running since 2007. For works whose data remains in the archive, you can actually see the sites as they were at the time. < I no longer have screenshots from before 2007, and I do not have enough records from that period, but I'm sure you can still feel the passion and creative breath of that time from the works lined up here.
I hope that by looking back at the web expressions of those bygone days, you can once again feel the influence that Flash had on later web design and the creative passion that was its source.
P.S. I have just released "Dear Internet," a service that lets you create your own online autobiography. I hope you will take a look at it as well.
Hey, that's right, my plan is for the deadline to be at my midnight to offer a chance for everyone to have a full 1st of April, I'm also considering giving one more week because I know some instances were interested but haven't sent a song yet, this would also allow me to perfect the voting form haha
My body is ready. Thanks!
And thank you again for the participation of lemmy.ca!
