Hello! Welcome to Saudade. This is an archive for petz, babyz, and oddballz sites. The Petz community has
|
||
|
|
been around a long time, and many sites that were once pillars of the community have been lost.
|
||
|
|

target="_blank">Minibyte's archive</a>
|
||
|
|
once did the job that I am attempting to do now, someday I hope to amass her collection!
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> </p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>On each page, there is a menu in the top right corner. It looks like this:</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<div id="heart">♥</div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Hover over it to open the menu! The menu will have a link back to this page, the changelog for that
|
||
|
|
particular site, and the Wayback capture link if applicable.
|
||
|
|

For each site, I re-create each page by hand. Yes! This is tedious, especially for large sites. There are a
|
||
|
|
couple of reasons I do this rather than download the site as-is:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
Most sites are rather disorganized, so I shuffle things around to make a bit more sense and to preserve
|
||
|
|
what's left of my sanity.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
It makes it easier to check broken links and update them, find the Wayback version, or mark them as
|
||
|
|
broken.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
I would need to go through each page and inject the little menu that links back here & to the changelog
|
||
|
|
anyway.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
The biggest reason: most of these sites were made 15-20+ years ago, when the internet, HTML, and CSS
|
||
|
|
were in their infancies. Much of the code is wildly outdated and at risk of being deprecated. I update
|
||
|
|
the code as much as possible while preserving the style of the site, as a way of "future-proofing". I
|
||
|
|
want this archive to last as long as possible!
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Sites are not posted here until either the whole site goes down, or noticable chunks start to break.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Each site has a changelog that can be found by clicking the little floating menu in the top right corner!

Hello! I'm marley, or mar @ epiphany on forums/Discord, or punkfairie various other places. I own Epiphany,

I've been in the PC on and off for 15+ years, since about the 4th grade or so. This community is the reason
|
||
|
|
I know how to code! It's a place that's near and dear to my heart.

when it was up, and a few years ago when it went down I got to thinking I'd like to make something like
|
||
|
|
that. I did start it, but lost interest in Petz and ended up deleting all the files when cleaning my hard
|
||
|
|
drive.

In Feb of 2022 I was bored and wanted a coding project, and remembered that idea I'd had for a Petz archive.
|
||
|
|
A few weeks later, I bought punkfairie.net and uploaded the archive of Petz 5 World! That was the first Petz
|
||
|
|
site I ever remember visiting as a child, and it seemed fitting to make that my first entry to my archive.

I hope you enjoy your time here, whether you're reminiscing on old friendships or curious what the PC of
|
||
|
|
yesteryear got up to. ♥
