A faithful, retro-styled recreation of the fictional "Findorama" prop website featured in Stargate SG-1, Season 4, Episode 15: "Chain Reaction".
This project captures the peak early-2000s web aesthetic, accurately mimicking the Netscape Navigator environment and the iconic login page used by General Hammond and Harry Maybourne to expose the rogue NID operations.

In the episode "Chain Reaction", a secret website called Findorama.net is used as a front to store classified data. However, eagle-eyed tech fans and the Stargate community quickly noticed a hilarious technical oversight in the original broadcast: the address bar in the browser reveals that the "website" was actually just a local file running off the studio computer's hard drive:
file:///C:/www.findorama.net.bin/login.html
This project turns that beloved piece of television sci-fi prop history into a fully functional, pixel-perfect static web page tribute.
