It was plain text.
With a few pages eventually having an image and it was just stiff said about them in the original series, next generation and eventually ds9.
It was terrible but I miss the excitement of people getting in touch with the other details and episode references I had missed out or didn’t know about.
Of course, not for the content itself, but because it's really a time capsule of the feelings and hopes of our time, back then, when we were teens, discovering this new exciting thing called Internet, the excitement of meeting like minded people and have discussions that you could never have with your friends.
I feel like nothing is ever gonna replicate that excitement anymore, but that may be more related to us being 40+ than the technology not being available xD
Geocities/Lycos/others, then switching to phpbb forums that you modded and where you had your first programming experiences to try to build games...great innocent times all around, before everything was enshittified for commercial purposes.
