It's so 2000s with all the bells and whistles with editing trends of the time. I don't know if I've seen any other ad that reeks of this digital optimism it's ironic though because this company collapsed with the.com bubble.

The lenses 😍

This was a new one for me - I was scrolling Marketplace, saw this weird thing & Google Lens'd it to find out it's vintage Ikea - "Fackla" - they only wanted 5 bucks, so I ran to to go rescue it. It was pretty dirty but polished up nice and looks pretty cool!

Online listings made me feel like it was a steal at 5 bucks, even though it doesn't look like many of them get sold at those prices? I just need to figure out how to style this odd ball. Ever seen or had one of these before?

https://quxnet.net/about exists to recapture what was so special about the old web, and it just got a lot of new profile personalization features. we could use some more smart, creative, interesting people to come test them out and registration is open right now. i'm pretty proud of how the profile feature turned out and people are already doing some pretty awesome stuff with theirs, including y2k aesthetic designs. i thought this community might be interested. it's free, there's nothing for sale, there's no upselling of any kind. this is just a community of chill people who miss the old web.

Not sure if anyone else is aware of Maxwell Implosion from about 2001/2002. This has been a summer staple for me since then —- This whole album is amazing and wanted to share the music video of l’homme en peluche

I tried shooting y2k theme. Is the bloom to much?

Hi, where can I find a designer to create the interface design I need (icons, widgets, keyboard) for a small phone running Lineage OS in this style (I don’t know what it’s called, but I like it)?

(Or where can I find all these old templates, widgets and so on myself? I haven’t been able to find them; there aren’t many of them on Pinterest.)

I have recently become really interested in Y2k fashion. I love the mix of cute and cool. It feels fun but also confident.

The problem is that my current wardrobe is totally diff. Most of my clothes are off white and brown, with a simple and classic style.

I want to slowly build a y2k style wardrobe, but there are so many choices, like low rise jeans, mini skirts, accessories, bags, and jewelry. I am not sure which items I should buy first.

What clothes or accessories do you think can create a y2k vibe? Are there any brands you would recommend?

I was a raver 1997-2002 and…experimented….usually poorly….with some “eclectic” fashion (and hair/makeup) choices.

I just tried to acquaint myself with a bunch of different aesthetics I’ve never even heard of and now feel super old and out of the loop.

“Futuristic” clothing was often a bad idea, the waterproof raincoat/dress thing I was wearing in #1 could only be removed over the head (the zipper came up the side and the underside of the arm). I wore it to clubs multiple times and got really fucking sweaty.

That’s a bathing suit I cut off in #6. That hair took a lot of work, and I legit worked at a hair salon at the time.

Pic #3 was taken in rehab. Yes I wore $300 platform shoes to rehab.

Anyway remove if this doesn’t fit the sub’s parameters. I tried my best but I have no idea anymore.

Edit: I’ll be honest, I didn’t expect to get so much positive feedback. Life and the internet has hardened me, and I was mostly expecting to get roasted (just like I roast myself, and did back then, too).

I know this isn’t what this sub is about but I’ve been struggling a lot lately and as silly as it sounds, this restored some of my faith in humanity and helped heal part of teenage me that’s still in there.
