Most of my photos from the early 2000s are 100x100 pixels because “why would you need anything larger than a livejournal user icon?”
@Alice I have a lot of photos that were taken on a mavica so yeah... feel ya on those low res gems lol
@Alice One of the best things about LJ was being able to pick a user icon per post. I miss that feature in more modern social media. :(
@Alice lucky you, I only have ASCII arts! 🤣
@Alice makes for a nice collage though!
@Alice So pouty. Much emo. 🖤

@Alice

This feels like a 90's album cover, love it.

@Alice I'm impressed by the consistency of your (photos') style

@leonardof I'd like to credit the weird Logitech? eyeball-shaped webcam I had precariously balancing on my monitor.

The connecting cable kept glitching out and taking photos with weird hues.

Some other photos from that time:

Taggart is a Scottish detective fiction television programme created by Glenn Chandler, who wrote many of the episodes, and made by STV Studios for the ITV network. It originally ran as the miniseries Killer from 6 until 20 September 1983, before a full series was commissioned that ran from 2 July 1985 until 7 November 2010. The series revolved around a group of detectives initially in the Maryhill CID of Strathclyde Police, though various storylines were set in other parts of Greater Glasgow and in other areas of Scotland. The team operated out of the fictional John Street police station. Mark McManus, who played the title character Jim Taggart, died in 1994. However, the series continued under the same name. Taggart is one of the UK's longest-running television dramas.

Reminds me of when I bought a Compaq Quad (1990ish?) with 4MB RAM; I actually said out loud "Why would you ever need more than 4MB of RAM?"

@rgulick I remember working at an Apple Store in 2005 and telling people that 512 MB of RAM should be PLENTY for most standard users. I thought I was helping.

In my defense, Apple prematurely aged out their computers via OS requirements, regardless of RAM.

@Alice Those lovely Łemko ladies would like to meet you
@Alice who could forget the era of the big american party at the magic stick?
@trollzenberg 😂 I fell more into the crowd of kids who went to The Bang!
