Snider web work circa 1999

By snide 175 Comments

If you've read my site bio you know that before I started building sites professionally I made them for fun for the various quake clans I was in. Recently I was trying to find my Vietcong play discs and came across an old dusty CD tittled "Snider, web + art". I give you, dear readers, some of the contents from that disc. As you know I'm pretty supportive of anyone trying to learn how to make the web a profession and I hope this truly amateur work from my early days inspire any young nerds out there to stick with their work, because you eventually do get better.  
 
Also, holy shit. Look at that fucking poser tough guy image!

Brave man. I barely even remember the 90's website, but I'm pretty sure their awesome.

They were simpler times; They were better times.  
 
Minimalism is under rated.

" What?  Where's all the Photoshop lens flare and emboss?  You call this 90's web design!? "
Even without that, I still find myself extremely aroused.  
 

 
.....By the 90's web design, not by Dave. Of course. 
 
In all seriousness, I sincerely miss 90s web design. I sometimes just go and poke around old-ass websites like those for fun.

Dave, dude, you look just like my cousin in that photo. It's eerily similar.

So freaking epic. In my head there is an 8-Mile-style montage of you coming up in the rough streets of...wherever you're from, hustling street corners and learning to use Frontpage.

I love finding old stuff like this, no matter how embarrassing it is. I know I have a disc somewhere from my junior year of high school with projects from my graphics class. Unfortunately I know there aren't any tough guy photos on there.

Well it's all part of the learning experience that's for sure, God knows I've had some pretty grim pieces in my own portfolio over the years.

@snide: Nothing like an old disc labeled "Art" or "Photoshop" when you need a good mix of cringing and smiling.

Those look pretty good. Hard to believe that they were from '99 'cause they look so good.

Is this the origin of Hardcore Dave? Holy Shit! Also Dave, those sites look pretty good to me for that period of web design.
