Niero must love it A LOT. since the day destructoid was built on the internet its gone through countless changes and tweaks. those joining the site today might not even recognize it from over two years ago. That is if that big old robot head hasn't been on the front page the whole time.

Walk down memory lane as I link to the most prevalent changes and some key mark events for Destructoid's front page. (forgive the archiver. its not perfect and displaying some images.)

March 31st 2006 The start of it all!
April 30 2006
May 1st 2006
June 13 2006 the sign of changes to come.
Some time in August
Oct 21st 2006 CONTEST I WON and who can forget Gregor as editor?
Dec 9th 2006 Never forget: Next and Nextlust.
Jan 1st2007 Happy new year!
March 17th 2007 thanks Niero!
May 26 2007 My birthday!
Aug 08 2007 DID SOMEONE SAY C BLOGS?
Aug 30th. 2007 The last day i could go back to.
today

Thank the "Way Back Machine" for the trip down memory lane and again Niero for his obsession with website tweaking.

Video BONUS! here are a handful of videos that I remember and want you to remember too. Can you find the odd one out?

this isn't really meant to be a "if you love it change it." just something I thought of.

I think a different title is needed. Other than that, super terrific retrotoid!

Oh, fuck you Lark. I was about to make a serious "If you Love it, Change it" post about Destructoid and the community. Now its not original. Fuck you.
