Hey y'all! So I discovered Wayback machine, a site that archives websites! I've found lots of now dead sites on there, some still have their downloads and others are mostly just for nostalgia/to appreciate old sites <3 I figured I really shouldn't keep it to myself, I should share Please note I always say downloads seem/don't seem to work because most of these sites have way too many downloads for me to try them all! So feel free to click around and let me know specific ones that work if you find any \
~Farie BarnDance - This was the first site I found there! You probably already know this, but downloads work.
~Black Mist Cattery Memorial site - Clothing downloads don't seem to work, but I was able to download some breedz! (specifically downloaded pap and great dane).
~Minibyte Petz Archive - Unfortunately I've only been able to find one working download. To find it go to Dogz 3-5 Breeds, click the little noodle bowl at the end of the second paragraph. Both petz download fine. Some pictures are missing. Obviously way too many files for me to test them all here, but I did try 20+ links and found most of the dead.
~Iola’s Hexed Breeds - Downloads seem to be working fine.
~Supernova - Only tried a few things because there are SO many downloads, but downloads I tried worked! Toy hexing tutorial with pictures also works!
~APKC - The original!!! Looks weird but hey, who cares? Tried several downloads, most worked but not all of them sooooo you’ll just have to try lol. Old unzipping program seems to work also(at least on my windows 10 PC).
~APKC - This is the version with P5 only stuff, however downloads work fine.
~Abno ; Jess’ Breeds - Seems to be functional!
~Abno ; Vicki’s Breeds - Also seems functional!
~SWK - Seems to work fine!
~The Petz Castle - Seems to be working.
~Scrappy - Some downloads work fine, others don’t.
How can you help? Drop more sites for me to go find! If you have the old URL that's best but if you only have the name I might still be able to find it This could potentially be awesome for getting back some lost files, as well as just enjoying old sites we all used to love Also, feel free to back up your own favorite sites here on the bottom right Feel free to also start checking old sites as well if you would like, just comment the link & your findings(if you want) and I'll add it here!
