Wow, I never thought GTPlanet looked like it did back in 2001... Jordan sure has put a lot of effort into this website.

 

[Klostrophobic]

Wow, the older versions look like garbage compared to the new version.

 

[Solid Fro]

I remember that design! Someone gave me a link over at GTF.

 

[Josh]

It might not have looked as nice back in the day, but damn it still rocked!

Hehe, www.mazdausa.com dates back to mid '97, it has "Passion for the Road", but none of the pics still work. The first '98 site works mostly, it has the old MPV on it and everything. Exellent stuff!

 

[MazKid]

Woah! The japanese Mazda site dates back to '96, and a fair amount of it still works!
Look at this:

And on the UK site:

Thanks for posting this Pupik, It'll keep me busy for a long time!

Haha, wow, gtp looked like crud back then.

(No offense, ofcourse, Jordan. )

 

[RVDNuT374]

I didn't even know about GTP in 2001.

 

[Magic069]

I remember that old yellow version! The one before that I had never seen before. Nice advances Jordan!

 

[KosmikFool]

Shibby!

I've visited the Web Archive before, but I don't remember checking to see if it archived our forums when we were still running Ikonboard. But, it looks like it did, and even archived most of the old images and avatars, too!

Edit- I remember him, now, but I don't recall him being a moderator. Ya learn somethin' new everyday...

 

[Acid X]

Edit: Rather, who was Corey and why was he a mod in gtp 4?

You know, I don't remember him being a moderator, either!

Corey is a professional web designer who, in exchange for a link to his web design firm in the footer, created that layout for me. I just told him what I wanted, and he did it (at that time, I knew very little HTML). So, I made him an administrator to show my appreciation.

I remember Cory coming on a little while ago after GTP5 came about.

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one, but I was hoping you of all people would remember!




Does ANYBODY remember?!?!

 

[Magic069]

That was a little bit before my time. I still wish I bumped into GTP a little earlier then I did. The community seemed so small then!

 

[MazKid]

Heh. Mysterious mods.

The old Mazda sites are pretty sad...but on the Netherlands site I found a short intro movie for the '97 MPV. "Volkakt!" lol. Seems that Honda copied Mazda, just look at the new Accord commercial, they say "Volkakt" too.

 

[-Fred-]

FYI, "Volktat" is German... perhaps you'd want to say the Germans copied Mazda too?

 

[MazKid]

I know that, I'm just saying that if you listen to the Accord commercial, it's nearly the same as this MPV movie. Not in the way it's said, in the way it's used in the dialog. In this MPV movie, it says "In a new form, in a new design, volktat", which is much like the Accord ads' dialog.

What's this onset of hatred Fred? I mean...you've said stuff like that before to me, but I'd like to know why...
