All the gifs and jpegs were in sepia.

Back then internet servers were getting a bit of flack from environmentalists for the destruction of cuttlefish populations.

But napster kept the masses placated so there was never a revolution.

    Ahh, yes, I remember hearing the clop clop of the FTP man coming down our road. It was often the highlight of the day! I would go running through house yelling "Mummy! Mummy! The downloads are here!"

    We would meet him out front of the house and everyone would hope that he had brought a new photo or shareware demo just for them!
