What it does

Ongoing: If this is your only card here, +3 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 10 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.

The site, in 2021

A blinkie generator where you choose a style and type your own text to make a tiny animated pixel badge.

Blinkies are small blinking banners from the early-2000s web. Its creator, Amy, started the site on 15 October 2021, and by December 2022 it had 236 templates, many from other artists.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

Under Construction: Homepages, fan shrines and the GIFs that decorated them.
