website-design
I want to build a website for a retro thing that was popular in the mid 90s (beginning of the commercial internet).
So I want use old designs that was very popular at that time.
The first thing that comes to my mind was those "under construction" animated gifs. People often put animated gifs everywhere.

But also those awful repeating backgrounds.
So yes, I want my website to look exactly like in the mid nineties ;)
(please suggest practical and usable features, I guess an Java Applet menu would not work today, or saying on the bottom that this website is optimized for Netscape 3)
EDIT: for those that wants to see the result: Retrology
