ARTWORK SOURCES Archived GeoCities and GifCities graphics. Original GIF bytes and animations are preserved. The masonry frame is a non-generative cutout from the first frame of 022_Misty_Stone_Arch.gif. The archived doorway opening and plain outer black background were made transparent; retained pixels are unchanged. The page assembles these assets with CSS sizing, tiling, clipping, shadows, and color filters. No generated illustrations are used in this version. ARTWORK SOURCES Original animated GIFs from archived GeoCities pages and GifCities. The files retain their original animation, palette, and transparency. The previous drawn cave map is no longer displayed.

The site adds the gentle swing with CSS; this motion is not part of the original plaque GIF. The iron support is cropped from the original cafe-sign graphic listed in sign/bracket-source.json. Composition script: art/compose_wood_sign.py. No generative image editing used. CURRENT HEADER SIGN The current Blender sign is based only on the dark WOOD CARVER reference photograph provided by Gus. It adapts the reference's twin upper shoulders, shallow top dip, straight sides, rounded lower corners, small bottom point, dark wood field and simple raised wooden rim to landscape proportions. Both text lines occupy the same board. The ARCHITECTE reference and green scroll border are not used. Editable model source: art/woodcarver-sign/. Current bitmap finish: art/photoshop-sign/build.py. Final asset: assets/sign/gus-cannon-photoshop.png, 270 by 150 pixels with 64-color dithering. The model silhouettes receive a programmatic early-Photoshop-style treatment: directional noise wood grain, stepped gradients, bevel/emboss edges and hard shadows. It was not edited in Photoshop. No image generation or artificial weathering is used. The original iron support is restored from the cafe-sign source listed in assets/sign/bracket-source.json. The CSS chain links and bitmap suspension loops remain removed. There are no header torches or sign movement. Other artwork credits above remain unchanged. The raised letter faces use a digital approximation of warm vermilion red, a pigment available to late-medieval painters. The existing bevel, grain and small dithered bitmap are retained. Historical color reference: Richard Gameson, Royal Society, “Colours of the seasons” (2023): https://www.royalsociety.org/blog/2023/01/colours-of-the-seasons/ FRIENDLY HEADER GARGOYLES Cat-like stone guardian, retrieved through GifCities: https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/GJVOUSWLYAWN7TXPNZPC566DFF3TLEDA.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20090904034144/http://www.geocities.com/the_dilapidated_one/IB/gargani4.gif The original first frame is used as a stationary statue, with neutral stone coloring applied in CSS and a mirrored companion. No generated artwork or red-eye animation. Original download and source metadata: art/friendly-gargoyles/. The horned flying gargoyle above the crystal ball has been removed. The lower doorway uses the existing plain timber-door.png instead of the demonic gate figures. CURRENT SMALL STONE GUARDIANS Stone dragon from GifCities (first frame used as a stationary carving): https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/6FV7F2Y3X33QJOMRKHOSEAUMJ65EH54U.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20090727142946/http://geocities.com/evildzines/ Original pixels retained. CSS adjusts the stone tint and mirrors the left carving. Each statue sits inside the same archived stone arch used elsewhere on the homepage. Source and further griffin/lion alternatives are retained in art/stone-guardians/. This replaces the large cat-like gargoyle pair. HEADER TORCH SCONCES Iron torch basket on a wooden backplate, retrieved through GifCities: https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/AGLBOVR3R5TM4BPVEKQ5W6IB7OFUUDH6.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20091028070045/http://www.geocities.com/penfeather2000/fanfiction.html Original GIF pixels, palette, and transparency preserved. Frame delays changed from 30ms to 120ms for a quieter flame; loop repeats indefinitely. The Motion off control uses its original first frame. Source, timing script, and alternate sconces: art/torch-sconces/. HEADER DISPLAY UPDATE The stone dragon niches have been removed from the header. The original iron bracket now uses pixelated scaling (500 by 68 pixels on desktop, exactly 5x horizontally and 2x vertically) with a hard offset shadow. Its original artwork is unchanged. CURRENT WALL AND SIDE PIERS Rough stone masonry, retrieved through GifCities: https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/6PO3NAIZ2THDKIMHWVPOSCUFTSGZT5T7.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20091027042421/http://hk.geocities.com/momowitchsp/link.html The original first frame replaces the flawed green wall tile. CSS applies a moss-green color to the wall and a neutral stone color to the piers. A single continuous wall layer avoids seams between the page shell and outer background. Side piers have straight edges, shallow edge shadows, and proportional stone texture instead of artificial notches, mirrored stretching, and cylindrical highlights. Original artwork and source metadata: art/masonry/. CONTACT WIZARD AND LOWER WALL Contact wizard: an_wizard_01_s_r.gif, supplied by Gus. The uploaded GIF is used unchanged in the map portal and Contact section, with its original first frame for Motion off. The bottom battlement now uses its empty first frame, removing the animated figures while preserving the original stone wall. EAR TRAINING FROG Wonky green frog from GifCities: https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/2U27DWQTZSG4FSTW7JUAWLBKUW2H6F77.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20091021124223/http://geocities.com/catou_kisses/toadparadise.html Original animation, palette, timing, and transparency preserved. The Motion off control uses the original first frame. Original download and source metadata: art/ear-training-frog/. ENSEMBLE CLASSES CHARACTERS YMVA2VVXWD6T7AMAUIDJ42REB5BUZMCK.gif, supplied by Gus. Used unchanged as Ensemble_Knights.gif in the portal and opened section; original first frame supplied for Motion off. Source metadata: art/ensemble-knights/source.json. PREVIOUS ENSEMBLE CLASSES GROUP Group of four gnomes, retrieved through GifCities: https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/2E7TAEW2CKH4CPUOTUUDMZG34CIJTAS6.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20050527234248/http://www.geocities.com/starchaser109/kabouter-plop.gif The original three-frame GIF replaces the knights in the map portal and opened section. Original pixels, transparency, and 500ms frame timing preserved. Motion off uses the original first frame. Original download and source metadata: art/gnome-ensemble/. PREVIOUS ENSEMBLE CLASSES GROUP Three wizards, retrieved through GifCities: https://blob.gifcities.org/gifcities/IKKJXCUHF7YGXCLYG5CA3C23OMN4VCLS.gif https://web.archive.org/web/20091022102619/http://geocities.com/jgcrews/index.html Embedded GIF credit: Animated by JO GRAHAM 1999. Original two-frame animation, palette, transparency, and 330ms timing preserved. Motion off uses its original first frame. The full image is fitted inside the portal and room without cropping. Source metadata and original: art/wizard-trio/. ENSEMBLE CHAMBER CONTRAST The original wizard pixels are unchanged. CSS lifts the stone backdrop shadows and keeps room shading behind the figures so the dark left cape stays visible on desktop and mobile. CURRENT ENSEMBLE CLASSES CREW Five separate archived GIFs arranged as an adventuring party: troll, goblin, archer, knight, and the existing Spider_Walking asset. Original pixels preserved; the troll’s zero-delay frames are set to 150ms for an even walk. The goblin GIF carries the embedded credit "GifAnim by Nobuhiro Hattori". First-frame PNGs support Motion off. Originals and sources: art/fantasy-crew/.
