This is a truly fantastic story. It reminds me of why the Internet is cool, if you dig deep enough, there’s always treasure to be found.

Oh wow, I never heard of the skin archive. This is fantastic.

I still use Winamp 2.95, with a Pure Pwnage skin I downloaded back in the mid 2000s. Added it to the archive.

The next one contained a Flintstones rule 34 image, which I won’t include here for obvious reasons.
