　■I love the colors on the background of this page. It reminds me of a dream I had as a kid where all of humanity was living in bubble cities at the bottom of the ocean in the distant future.
　│
　└■this place has a wonderful aesthetic
　　│it definitely does feel like something out of a dream
　　│if it's supposed to look strange on purpose (and I wouldn't be even a little
　　│surprised if it was), then good fucking job, seriously ヽ(´∇`)ノ
　　│
　　│there was that bit just mentioned where the original incarnation of ayashii
　　│was in fact supposed to be an underground sort of place, so again, it really
　　│would not be surprising
　　│
　　└■I'm not sure if ur aware, but the board software we're using here is a 
　　　│real Ayashii World software that can be traced back to the late 90s, 
　　　│and has continued development into current times. It's not something 
　　　│Heyuri made (besides translation and the kaomoji buttons), or some kind 
　　　│of replica - it's teh real deal! ヽ(´ー｀)ノ
　　　│
　　　│Going back to 1996-1997, Ayashii World originally just used whatever 
　　　│background color the free service they were using had. When they 
　　　│switched to actually installing the board software themselves in Sept 
　　　│1997, they mostly used #007f7f. This was in line with the general 
　　　│aesthetics of Windows 95, Netscape, and many other things of the era
　　　│
　　　│In May 1998, Shiba changed the background color to #004040, which was 
　　　│initially controversial but quickly mass-adopted. This is what we're 
　　　│using now, and what the majority of Ayashii World-type sites have used 
　　　│since (although there are other branches with different colors - 
　　　│Honten, Nazo, etc.). It's often described in Ayashii texts as being 
　　　│like a blackboard ヽ(´ー｀)ノ

　　　└■there is also teh line breaker that's unique to us. Newbs, plz get used 
　　　　　to breaking your lines!
　　　　　also u can easily preview what it would look like with different colors 
　　　　　from User Settings buttan, here is #007f7f

　　　　　I think Shiba's ver is better, if for nothing else, mai eyes (;^Д^)
