Fun Facts
Trivia
- The background appears to be a heavily Photoshopped picture of Homestar. It appears that "Plastic Wrap" and "Lens Flare" filters were used, among others.
- Despite the "broken code" appearing on the page, the HTML on the page is actually well-formed, and even includes some JavaScript code to include Google Analytics.
Inside References
- Homestar refers to his page as a "Wedsite".
- "Helscome" is an example of Unusual Greetings, and is also a portmanteau of "hello" and "welcome".
Real-World References
- Homestar's Website works best on "Nedscape 1.0" or lower. "Nedscape" is an obvious misspelling of Netscape, an Internet browser.
- Ironically, this page will not load with Netscape 1.0, and there is no publicly released lower version.
