+# alternate.thiscat.rocks
+
+This is a second homepage for Baxter that aims to celebrate him through a little bit of a nostalgia lens
+
+It makes use of a css library called [system.css](https://github.com/sakofchit/system.css) to acheive an aesthetic look of an early System 6 era macintosh
+
+The photos are downscaled and have photo noise added to give the look of a low quality 90s camera
+
+They are in black and white because system 6 was largely on monochrome Apple computers
+
+I created a small photo gallery, and you can click on each image to view it at a larger size along with a small description provided with the image. You can use the standard close winow button at the top left to go back to the images to keep browsing
+
+I may add more photos in the future, but for now I am happy with the selection
+
+## Visit the site

+You can visit the site and look at the images here [alternate.thiscat.rocks](https://alternate.thiscat.rocks/)
